New Microsoft Business Strategy

Don't post without these.

Owing to their losing market share, Microsoft today announced that they would begin cutting prices on all future operating systems down to $175, but would be discontinuing it’s policy of free service packs. Instead, they’ll be charging upwards of $25 for security and functionality improvements. These paid-for service packs will only work on a limited set of hardware. Supported hardware will only be announced once the service pack is released.

Perhaps this will help spur adoption of Chrome

(Edit!)
Sometimes you miss. In case it’s not clear, I’m saying that this is Apple’s current strategy, and that it’s kind of awful.

(Edit Edit!)
It turns out that this is only potentially funny if you follow the links. And people aren’t doing that. Shame on you ;)
