Windows will keep only gamers, because there is no other gaming platform. Go now Natella.. During the recent interview with business podcast Marketplace's Corner Office, Dell XPS 15 and XPS 17 now available with 13th Gen Intel CPUs and NVIDIA RTX 40-Series graphics, Resident Evil 4 remake preview: Darker and sleeker but still beautifully cheesy, Bing Chat can now switch between tones at the switch of a toggle, Monster Hunter: Rise and 19 other games headed to NVIDIA GeForce NOW in March. That was the finding of a survey on corporate attitudes by Microsoft Corp ., the workplace software giant and owner of LinkedIn. I hope Nadella has jotted down a note to himself: Do not attempt to re-create Ballmer developers video. And completely abandoning the consumer market, going for business only. What did we get, oh we are committed to WebOS and its future. I will never ever buy a Microsoft product again. Boy do I look like a fool now! Its the substance abuse of choice for the 23rd/24th etc centuries. Microsoft, you used to plant the tree. So he admits it? Except if you paid sometimes after accepting agrements, but if you did, please tell us what? LOL, the only thing worth copying from a Lumia was the camera technology. (No, I haven't timed for how long, but but more that 5 minutes. Lets see what happens. I'm a Verizon customer for 15 years, and I heard they were so mad at Microsoft, hence their later attitude towards carrying and supporting Windows phone. Nadella is a cloud guy, which is the strong growth future for Microsoft. What really killed it though was the repeated reboots of mobile since WP7 where they left everyone in the dust moving forward. I still love my now essentially abandoned 950XL. That fanboy attitude also helped killing Windows Phones. Also, while Nadella is generally considered to be well-liked internally, he can hardly be universally popular. Actual sales, not percentages of some small market. What really hurts is that people buy what they know. I honestly dont think there was anything MS could have done to get back in the game. When my 950 dies or I'm clearly missing out on the coolest phone features, I'll move over to Google and say goodbye toone OneDrive etc. Enterprise is everything. Feel free to connect with us if you need business research. I understand why they pulled out. Satya Narayana Nadella has been the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Microsoft by succeeding Steve Ballmer in 2014 and under him, the company had witnessed considerable growth. I had two Lumia 822's, two 928's(me and my girlfriend, who loved her 928 btw) an Icon and now a 735. Like a domestic violence victim, MS fanboys everywhere should be asking some critical questions about the relationship they find themselves in. No thanks MS. Bye Bye. So let's market a phone that is not a phone for the fear of recalling the big fiasco made out of 10% of mobile market share they made out of Windows Phone/windows 10 mobile. He had cynically deceived loyal fans of W10M. TRYING VERY HARD? He adapted the idea to encourage employees to shift from Microsoft's historical "know-it-all" culture to embrace a "learn-it-all" curiosity. And that means Google and Apple (and maybe Amazon) are going to be there, stealing what they can from Hololens and MS will lose its consumer business altogether. It has experimented in various areas Leadership, Organizational culture. I no longer consider myself a "Everything Microsoft" purchaser. This has enabled Nadella Satya to build diverse revenue source and profit mix. I still think Windows Phone/Mobile was a better OS on the surface, and on iOS 11 and iPHone 8 I'm finally getting some features that I had on my 920 (wireless charging and email transcriptions to name a couple). I highly doubt there were only 20 mil users seeing as I personally know loads who has bought into the Windows ecosystem with no input from me or someone like me. I don't know what's the solution to that is. It's sad really. How much would it really cost to provide support for some company to continue W10M on a phone that it could sell at a profit? We were told that Microsoft was compremetida with Windows 10 mobile and now we leave the users side, Microsoft Lords as you want to grow the quota if you do not sell phones and does not enough marketing and the developers are going other platform RMs. The thing barely had any exclusive games other than the usual Halo,Forza, GOW etc and before you know if we are already on a generation refresh with the One X. I love how everyone seems to think Google and apple can conquer every market. Every time I see an article like this it just leave me scratching my head how a "tech giant" like Microsoft abandons the largest market on the planet, mobile. The fact that Google did and Microsoft didn't is, well, rather sad in my view. Nadella said it's cloud first. Anyway, Jason, I enjoy your articles, quixotic as they are at times :). Maybe we need Bill Gates to lead microsoft again..I hate CEOs that try to show profit by downsizing rather than truly growng the business. I am staying with my April 2017 Lumia 950XL (UK) till it no longer works. @JaimitoFrog.Yeahthats the ticketMS would be bankrupt in 6 months. Ballmer did, but of course short term profits is what share holders think about. The PC market could face materially worse returns than expected. The Universal Windows App system would be a great method for providing that frredom of choice if security is your primary concern then choose less apps and greater security choices. That might not happen. Yet they keep making the same mistakes, over and over and over. By using the old adage of "embrace and extend". Atleast MS will not have to worry about the app gap and the OS can be customized as per MS specific needs. I generally agree with what you say but really, you're ignoring the fact that Europe has twice as many consumers as the US. When you fail to tell the truth to your employees the organization begins to corrode from the inside. Obviously this has to be asked and displayed PROMINENTLY. Buy NVDA on any tech stock weakness, in the $180 to $220 range. They can't even get a Cortana powered speaker off the ground. The high brass at MSFT has to be replaced. It is good that he has regrets, but too little --. I'm getting off track), updated features. But as noted by NOT having a precesence in Mobile with a OS that cleanly integrates into the PC, they are failing. Satya went for the cheap option. And I was told I didn't know what I was talking about when I have repeatedly said this for the past two years. While Nadella was essentially the unanimous choice of those outside the company your humble servant included his clippings have become too nice. What Microsoft lost is more than a windows mobile customer. People would be willing to buy a Windows Phone in that case because it could run all of the same Android apps and in many cases, run them better. I have a simple straight question for Jason Ward in order to better understand and "position" his analysis and Warditorials. Companies that go after short term profits and sacrifice visions always lose in the long term, and unfortunately MSFT is at that crossroad. I mean what should force people to keep using Microsoft Office on the mini PCs of the future. yes you guessed correctly that is the smart phones that will be docked like you have seen with Continium. It doesn't matter which is the best (it never has, e.g. Time is Running Out, Motorola's handy Bluetooth device adds satellite messaging, Linux 6.2: The first mainstream Linux kernel for Apple M1 chips arrives, Sony's new headphones adopt WH-1000XM5 technology at a great price, The perfectly pointless $197 gadget that some people will love. the penny drops at MS? When MS failed to do anything to keep me as a customer, I finally switched to Apple (after resisting for years). Nokia always built the best Windowsphones anyway. I don't know why they seem concerned about our comments in the Windows Phone Platform, but do nothing to fix what we share. You lose your ability to retain talent or to recruit the best talent when futures are uncertain. I agree, IBM now has declining revenue, because to the ordinary person, IBM has no relevance at all. I have personally seen such apps on existing windows tablets. Even the iphone needed a reboot every week or two. Only some "We told you so!"'s. But if they were smart they would not brand it Microsoft or Windows. The announcement of the end of Groove on 12/31 together with a non-working Spotify app on my phone was the final straw for me. If theysee Google and Apple apps/hardware/software everywhere, people are not going to buy Microsoft. MS still dominates most aspects of computer infrastructure and Android/iOS isn't replacing that anytime soon. "I did not get why the world needed the third ecosystem in phones, unless we changed the rules." The biggest OS company in the world, who promised Windows on any form of device -- and yet it gives up on phones and smartwatches? Google and Apple worked out a long time ago that Mobile is VERY important. They did this with browsers in the early days of the consumer based internet. are consumers. I'm making this comment on downloaded bing from the play store on my old Samsung Galaxy Mega. If you didn't have MS Office you'd be nothing be an ancient memory in anals of computer history. Microsoft is really sorry about those other times it deserted you but it loves you - it's getting counseling and turning over a new leaf. WP gained decent marketshare in several TINY markets due to selling cheap (aka low or no margin) phones like Lumia 520, 640 etc. Where is MS's answer to those? So, you know, keep the Surface division growing at triple digit percentages for the next few years. "The future of work is not just about technology and tools," he said. At a time when Chromebooks are getting popular they should not abandon the lower end or middle of the market. What he fails to see are the longterm effects of his short term decisions. This so reminds me of when I had my Palm Pre. That's now Nadellas problem to deal with. PLEASE SET UP A "SURVEY" with both Are you upset that Satya Nadella is abandoning Windows Mobile? Now is their communication process and the way how they approach consumers ok? There were rumblings since last year that WM was going to be killed off yet no one came out and gave an official word other than crap about "being committed to mobile". No one mentions this and I feel it was detrimental to Microsoft going forward in Mobile, because in the U.S., Verizon is the biggest carrier. Omissions? 1. It will go a long, long way. In the course of my day I shall speak to clients. Microsoft may have done better to keep a controlling share of Nokia and just let it run itself. The really really sad thing is that for a while ago, I was still defending for W10M and truly believed that MS had something cool they are working on. Look at how both the Surface Book and the Surface Studio took the vast majority of sources by surprise and the Surface Laptop only leak the day or two before announcement. Tried like hell to get SO Many people to jump on this bandwagon and ride it. If there was one bone-head move in recent times I would reverse it would have been leaving HP out to dry. Even with this entire WM10 debacle we never got a clear statement aside from tweets from Joe, nor did we get any sort of apology for leading consumers on. I think we will see the opposite now that mobile is king. The X3 is a great device and could have easily been positioned as the transitional testbed for WoA/CShell/OneCore. No, but the folks who drive them sure do like the ride. "Well-being is one of the most important pieces of productivity management 2.
