Why Microsoft Can't Best Google

Excerpt from Why Microsoft Can't Best Google:

Microsoft's business model depends on everyone upgrading their computing environment every two to three years. Google's depends on everyone exploring what's new in their computing environment every day.

This is very true. If you read Mark Lucovsky (a former Microsoft Distinguished Engineer)'s thoughs on how Microsoft ships software, it's pretty clear Microsoft is a dinosaur now. I welcome the sunsetting of Microsoft.
