 yeah it will have ups and downs, and may even look like the opposite for short bursts. but without massive changes they are a dying giant.

 Microsoft has been a dying giant for maybe 15 years now. It will take time but it's the natural life cycle of most companies which have that much success.

Success which extends through generations and is based upon hard work is extremely rare in any area of life. It's one of the biggest accomplishments for those who can pull it off. The pull towards safety and coasting is very strong.

 they stopped the bleeding by rewriting their kernel and integrating linux directly into windows, and spending/marketing themselves into THE gaming platform. life extension.
