Re: Microsoft Declares First Ever Loss In Its History by Nobody: 2:25pm On Jul 20, 2012 |
To those of you shouting Apple, they didn't lose to Apple, in fact their OS has 92+% of the market. They lost to Google's Ad system. They made a bad investment in Aquantive. |

Well with most companies still hanging on to Windows XP,it should not be a big shock to them. |
Re: Microsoft Declares First Ever Loss In Its History by DExplorer1: 2:32pm On Jul 20, 2012 |
I think it's a tensed period at the moment even Yahoo is having it's own share. Google can't come with perfect figures also but i think Apple is doing well. Aquantive would have been a strong challenge to Google in regards to web ads but Microsoft they got it wrong because the concentration and presentation of aQuantive as a new product was minimal since other windows product were concomitantly in vogue. Anyways, it's a hard lesson to learn in such a competitive tech-market. You Need To Read These!

SimonAndal: To those of you shouting Apple, they didn't lose to Apple, in fact their OS has 92+% of the market. They lost to Google's Ad system. They made a bad investment in Aquantive. Nah! aQuantive wasn't a bad investment, the timing was perfect to hit on Google but priorities was misplaced. Aquantive was the accurate response to Google Adword market dominance even though Microsoft PPC system was much of a clone to that of Yahoo and Yahoo was still struggling to meet up with Google's edge. aQuantive is very much a strong ads network talking about the competence of the digital companies it's made of, i see them doing really good.

Microsoft did themselves in. Vista was a failure. Word 2007 is very unpopular and explorer is no no.Instead of building on available features, their new versions became very difficult to understand and operate. Many people today still use word 2003 instead of the new version 007. Explorer is very slow and you can easily lose your write in online fora like Nairaland. So we go to firefox. |

Have you been living under a rock? Or maybe you're still on Windows 98, but the latest version of Office is Office 2010. 2. And I don't know who taught you English, or your SSCE score, but I'm pretty sure use plural of forum is forums. We are not in a Latin class here, sorry. |

I never said it's not. It's correct if we're speaking latin. |
Re: Microsoft Declares First Ever Loss In Its History by Skywalker5(m): 4:56pm On Jul 20, 2012 |
I now understand why Microsoft is getting angry with companies that fall short of their license. Microsoft is now getting tough on licensing issues now.They have started from server 2008 with different types of license that you will have no choice that to cough lots of money. licensing like CALS, per processor, per device. The money companies use to migrate from server 2003 to server 2008 is ridiculous. Most companies still use server 2003 apart from multinational OR companies that have big budget for IT. Seriously, if i had my way,it would be strictly linux and i wont even have to worry a lot about being attacked with Viruses but a lot of people dont know how to use linux and the training for that again is another problem, especially if some staff don't get it. 1 Like |

SimonAndal: I never said it's not. It's correct if we're speaking latin. You should be man enough to accept you were wrong. Both forums and fora are recognised in English language as plural forms of forum. And please, don't come up with the Latin stuff. The word forum was taken directly from Latin as are many other English words. So if you say fora is Latin, then forum is also Latin. Or would you say its wrong to use the word 'ab initio' when speaking English? 2 Likes |
