if thisquote:every team across Microsoft must find ways to simplify and move faster, more efficiently. We will increase the fluidity of information and ideas by taking actions to flatten the organization and develop leaner business processes. Culture change means we will do things differently. Often people think that means everyone other than them. In reality, it means all of us taking a new approach and working together to make Microsoft better. To this end, I've asked each member of the Senior Leadership Team to evaluate opportunities to advance their innovation processes and simplify their operations and how they work

it makes me depressed to think about how many man-hours and design revisions and stupid meetings and chinese labor and crude material logistics and loving ... big cargo ship ... gas went into creating a product that is literally a piece of garbage, a mouse with a windows key on it. and like every single person working on it had to know how worthless it was the entire time they had to help make it ugh it's just depressing

I just want a release of Lync for the Mac that doesn't suck it's a running joke between our engineering team and or prod ops team (me) about how terrible it is, but it's the only "sanctioned" choice to use during our deployments. it's just a constant string of random nonsensical errors spammed to everyone if anyone drops offline, followed by direct ims asking to be pulled back into the chat room because Lync crashed. again. also accidentally triggered video chats that have a habit of dumping everyone's session. and a bunch of buttons that when clicked just say they don't work in group chat. ok that's my story about the one Microsoft product I use on a regular basis. I think whatever is left of MacBU has been thrown into a pit.

here, i made it shorter The work over the past year makes me proud and energized. I said before that innovation trumps tradition, and we must rediscover ourselves to grow, innovate and change the world. This is our boldest job ever. Today I’ll reveal the plan, and we’ll take July to talk about it more, particularly on July 22nd after releasing our earnings results. The top executives will discuss the engineering and organizational changes in detail, and we’ll build on it at MGX and //oneweek. Our Worldview The world is focused on mobile and cloud, and online devices span the globe. But with nearly unlimited computing power comes a lack of human attention. There are opportunities in this connected world, and Microsoft is expected to seize it while preserving values. We’ll have the broadest impact by creating new ways to interact with computers securely, so people may thrive. Our Core We’ve called ourselves a “devices and services” company because we were founded to put a PC in every office and home, but we can define our strategy more. Our core is a productivity and platform company that helps users achieve more in this mobile/cloud world. Since we’re all so connected digitally, we have to think different to solve complex problems. Things like recipes, budgets and writing poetry; things we’ve been helping with for years. Or helping cure HIV or text-to-speech. With this unique foundation, we’ll reinvent productivity for this world, harmoniously across devices. We’ll build solutions that go beyond office productivity, tools that are predictive, personal and helpful. This will span all our work. As each user has work and personal lives, we’ll make secure products for both, including time management, collaboration, meeting, search and research services. And our partners can extend upon our experiences, and it will span all we do. Cortana, Delve and Power Q&A help people in new ways. We’ll create more apps that help to easily find, try and buy across many ecosystems, keeping people at the center. This is a change in progress in Skype, Office, Bing and more. And all these will become more connected together. CloudOS: We’re one of the strongest in cloud, and we’ll build more cohesive solutions than before. This means richer, more secure experiences for IT and employees using BYOD and Saas. We’ll innovate in identity and directory services, data storage, analytics, machine learning, media, web and mobile backend, developer productivity services and more. The cloud OS will run all Microsoft services, professional and personal, and allow developer extensions. Device OS and Hardware: Our great, secure user experience will set the bar on phones, tablets, laptops, TV’s and giant 82-inch PPI boards, benefiting developers and powering more devices. I also want to talk about Xbox. Gaming is the largest digital-life category, and we’ll keep growing the great Xbox brand with new interfaces and cloud gaming. We define mobile by experience, not devices. Our Culture We’re equally ambitious to evolve our culture. We’ll do anything to shift it, like change job responsibilities, form new partnerships, build skills and hire people. All are expected to take part and focus on customers, from engineering to marketing. Through less management, more accountability and access to Data and Applied Sciences tools, we’ll lower development time and please customers more. The next 6 months will see new training in these processes, and you’ll be able to move and grow around the company. This flatter organizational structure will make us leaner and faster, and take seize this opportunity. And the change happens in the individual. "The future enters into us, in order to transform itself in us, long before it happens.” — Rainer Maria Rilke Peace out.

Netbooks are fuckin' back and you know it because cheap windows laptops are too http://www.theverge.com/2014/7/14/5897641/microsoft-launches-a-price-assault-on-chromebooks "Microsoft is aiming straight for Google’s Chromebooks this holiday season. At the company’s partner conference today, Microsoft COO Kevin Turner revealed that HP is planning to release a $199 laptop running Windows for the holidays. Turner didn’t provide specifications for HP’s "Stream" device, but he did detail $249 laptop options from Acer and Toshiba. Acer’s low-cost laptop will ship with a 15.6-inch screen and a 2.16GHz Intel Celeron processor, and Toshiba’s includes a 11.6-inch display. It appears that Intel’s Celeron chips will help Microsoft’s PC partners push out cheaper devices in the race to the bottom."
