Microsoft losing market grip as rivals go on the offensive | |
|

| Time: 00:55 EST/05:55 GMT | News Source: E-Mail | Posted By: Todd Richardson | ||

AFTER years at the cutting edge of technology, Microsoft seems in danger of falling off the pace. According to Nomura analyst Richard Windsor, in the short-term Microsoft is going to have difficulty sustaining its current share price. "Microsoft needs to find revenue growth in order to justify its current share price, which represents a price-to-earnings ratio of 25 times," he says. "Growth in the personal computer market is last decade’s story, and market penetration has slowed." | ||

"Growth in the personal computer market is last decade’s story, and market penetration has slowed."
Yeah right. The personal computer market still has a long way to go. It has barely scratched the surface of the market that is out there. When the OS becomes so simple, that the keyboard and mouse are no longer needed, then we will see growth in the home market that has been expected for the last 20 years. |

>>> When the OS becomes so simple, that the keyboard and mouse are no longer needed
Is that supposed to happen before or after there is a robot in every home as foretold by Asimov in the 40s? |

Microsoft has been diversifying into other areas for many years now... what's the point of the article?
You could write the same exact thing about other companies, except in Microsoft's case, they had the forsight and started trying to diversify much earlier than most other tech companies. |
