  Opinion: Microsoft Isn't IBM
Time: 09:23 EST/14:23 GMT | News Source: eWeek | Posted By: Robert Stein

The article in the May 19 edition of eWEEK by Aaron Goldberg concerning the demise of Microsoft over time ("Microsoft hits downslope," Page 43) is interesting but, I think, far from accurate. Like Mr. Goldberg, many of us were there in the '70s through the '90s and saw IBM go from global computer dominance to near extinction. Some of us even remember the challenges IBM faced when the Justice Department called for the company to divest itself of its service bureau subsidiary, a situation that was similar to Microsoft's legal challenges of recent years.
