Microsoft doomsayers? Why I never..
They make billions. 1 of the top 5 most recognizable brands.
And we're sitting here saying Xbox is Microsofts last dying gasp?
f**k lol.
-edit-
If anybody is going to be worried about going out of business, it's Sony.

Microsoft makes a lot of good stuff. Windows 7 was good. Vista wasn't. Windows 8 is Vista 2.0. Maybe Windows 9 will be good.

i didn't think vista was bad, but i'll agree on win 8 being shitty. it's probably easier to leverage win 8 onto other things other than desktop though, since win 7 requires keyboard + mouse input. so win 8 is shitty for a desktop system, win 7 is superior.

What the heck is wrong with Win 8, one can do anything one can do in Win 7 via the desktop the learning curve isn't that steep.
