>Sinofsky did have some interesting things to say when I asked for his take on competitors like Google and Apple…

“You have to take it very seriously,” he said of the competitors. “That’s always, always true in the software world. In the software world it doesn’t take a lot to have a dramatic shift in how people perceive you or how they act. It’s just very important no matter what your perceived or real or measured share is at one moment, it doesn’t take a lot to change it down the road.“

This from the company that used to scoff at competitors as an irrelevance.

Wise words Sinofsky, wise words.

This guy is at the epicentre of Windows development and rollout and is best placed to know EXACTLY what state Microsoft are in. He knows VERY well what’s coming and is covering his ass very wisely.

Good move for your future career Sir.
