What the Surface 2 Teaches Us About Microsoft

Interesting article about what Microsoft’s release of the Surface 2 says about the current state of that company. (Click the title of this post to see the article).

From the article: “Microsoft is a bloated, somewhat-disorganized, always-dysfunctional, uncreative behemoth that does a few things well, a lot of things well enough, and too many things poorly.”

Unfortunately, my own (limited) interactions with the company can only confirm this opinion. However, I have high hopes that the next CEO will do something amazing with the small amount of creative momentum Ballmer started with the recent refreshes of products like Windows 8 and Office 365 at the end of his long, boring stint there.
