staying the corse with fewer people.
I'm sure that'll work out well, like the current corse is.
I'd be nice if MS had just fragmented out so we could get VC and .net on other platforms, along with Office. But as it stands now, all the kids are doing Ruby and anything else that isn't MS so the languages division (MSDN) folks are going down, and with Linux owning the 'cloud' space, now they screwed up consumer windows, so the tables and phones are taking over.
Looking back from 1999 it's amazing that MS could fuck it up so badly.
