According to this cultist, it is.
If you believe everything he says as gospel, he still only might be right in the long run.
Realistically, he's making some seriously big leaps with his assumptions and poor understanding about the corporate culture.
In reality, virtual and W8 are taking big chunks of MS, but they're still king of the hill. W9 should help, as should the rising Surface stock.
Oh, and if you work for a company where IT is getting pushed around by users, your company is behind the times. Not saying IT is the end all be all, but letting users dictate technology based on what's cool is not how successful businesses are run.
Is Apple killing MS?
A) There is no one who destroys MS worse than MS. Not Google, not Apple, not Yahoo!, not even combined. If MS were run by people who were clever and competent, they'd be killing Apple and running even with Google.
B) Well shit, when you can't really troubleshoot the OS without phoning home to Apple and you can't replace hardware yourself, what the fuck left is there to do?

They (IT departments) are doing this even though managing a bunch of Macs is harder for many of them than managing a bunch of Windows PCs. Almost 40% said that Macs are harder for IT to deal with than Windows.

I couldn't agree more. In fact, MS's $150 million donation to Apple is the only reason Apple is still around. Well, that and RealNetworks stupidly turning down the device that would later be called the iPod.

Fuck it, he's killing MS.
I've seen your interview process, dumb-ass. Those are the people you filter out.
He wants to make Microsoft a company where “smart, curious, ambitious people” can do “their best work.”
