Microsoft Hides Its Mobile and Business Apps Divisions | |
|
||
| Time: 00:46 EST/05:46 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Watch | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

Microsoft is changing yet again the way that it will report its financials. Instead of reporting the financial results of seven business units, Microsoft now will report results of five units. The company is folding its two worst-performing divisions – Microsoft Business Solutions (its business applications unit) and its Mobile and Embedded units – into the Microsoft Business Division and Microsoft Home and Entertainment units, respectively. Microsoft officials claim the new structure reflects the way the company is now organized into three overarching business units. | ||

Nice job Mary Jo Foley, but do you really need to JAZZ up EVERY headline?
fwiw, mobile and embedded is CONSISTENTLY profitable... but TINY compared to other groups. Not really sure how their "profitable" division would classify them as one of their "worst-performing divisions". Sounds like Mary Jo trying to make something out of nothing. Reference: http://www.microsoft.com/msft/earnings/FY06/earn_rel_q2_06.mspx do local search for "mobile" and find profit at least in 2004 and 2005. |

#1, Yeah... I don't get her, either. Such an odd, yet consistent perspective - all negative.
With so little objectivity, how do such people expect to sustain a broader audience? |

yeah, my biggest complement is that "her site stays up".
