Meme to Microsoft

September 17, 2005 22:45:08.487

Well, the "Microsoft in trouble" meme certainly seems to be spreading. Here's BusinessWeek on the subject, and that link popped up in memorandum. I wouldn't cry for them yet - they are sitting on a pile of cash and they are profitable year on year (unlike some other tech firms I can think of). And unlike those other firms, they aren't burning that cash with questionable acquisitions either. I think the "MS is dead" meme is premature, to say the least.
