      What If Microsoft Is Pursuing the Wrong Business?
      Microsoft is running scared because of the platform shift from the pc to the internet. They have never recovered from their realization that the pc operating system will eventually become obsolete. Ballmer's ill advised strategy is evidence of Microsoft's panic.

      I agree with Kevin's article. Microsoft should focus on developing personal and business software that operates effectively and efficiently in the cloud computing environment. With their technical expertise and billions in cash, they should be able to dominate the internet software space. Instead, Microsoft wants to be an internet conglomerate. Well, good managers running good businesses are required (like a GE) - this is not part of Microsoft's DNA.

      The real issue is Microsoft's unwillingness to accept that they cannot and will not dominate the internet computing platform. Microsoft must come to terms with this before they can develop an effective corporate strategy. Until then, I do not see MSFT as a good long term investment.
