Microsoft is set to unveil a bunch of new hardware on Wednesday, with the
star attraction likely to be a new Surface PC to compete with Apple's all-in
-one iMac.
Microsoft is billing this event as the future of Windows 10. That's not
surprising: The reason Microsoft got into the Surface business in the first
place was to push Windows forward into a touchscreen future, whether PC
manufacturers wanted it or not.
But we're fast approaching a moment in time where Microsoft is going to have
to do more than introduce new kinds of PCs if it wants Windows, first
introduced in 1985, to stay relevant for the next three decades.
The PC industry is shrinking and Windows is increasingly irrelevant in a
mobile world ruled by Apple's iOS and Google's Android. Even worse,
Microsoft's own attempts to break into the smartphone realm have landed with
a resounding "thud," exacerbating the slow decline of the Windows business
(fortunately for Microsoft, its cloud and productivity businesses are
exploding, propelling the company's stock to new highs). | b********n
发帖数: 38600 | 2 MS has ignored the fact that many users use PCs for productivity and not the
glitz and glitter of mobile and tablet connections.
MS is ignoring a large segment of PC users — those who have significant
reasons for still using XP and Win7, for example. |
