Pretty good analysis of MSFT, Google and Facebook. In the 1990s Bill Gates shared his visions in 1990 and 1994 at COMDEX (information at your fingertips and &quot;Cairo&quot;). In the 2000s Longhorn, WinFS (failed because dotNet was too slow) and the great work of Microsoft Labs like Photosynth. MSFT was on its peak with Office 2010 and Win7. Though then they closed their Labs department. And Satya Nadella only tries to milks the custumer with SaaS versions of their former on-premises software, expensive license model changes and hostile privacy intrusive spying stuff on end consumer. MSFT is such a mean company.
