  Microsoft Faces Uphill Battle As It Tries To Re-'Start' Windows 8
Time: 12:09 EST/17:09 GMT | News Source: Forbes.com | Posted By: Byron Hinson

Microsoft kicked off its Build developer conference in San Francisco yesterday and CEO Steve Ballmer seemed to take pride in the fact that it was just 8 months since the last one. While there wasn’t a touch of humor in his presentation, one couldn’t help sense the irony. Windows 8 — the biggest rewrite of the company’s flagship operating system in more than a decade and the platform to uniform everything from smartphones to PCs — was in need of some serious fixes and Microsoft MSFT +0.75% had to talk to developers now. Things couldn’t wait the full year; the 8th Windows needs helps 8 months in. Despite a bewildering array of fixes and changes, though, the new improved Windows 8.1 (due later this year) won’t fix an ailing PC market and won’t get Microsoft off its single-digit share in smartphones or tablets anytime soon.
