Extraordinary Genius

Chapter 1423: Disappointed Ballmer

Microsoft is pushing consumers to choose whether it's VISTA or XOS, something that gets too much attention, especially from the internet.

When they get used to the Internet, they are naturally inseparable from computers and, of course, from computer operating systems.

Many people still believe very much in Microsoft, or they're used to Microsoft systems. When Microsoft rolls out the new system, some people can't wait to buy the installation. Others, when choosing a new computer, abandon the pre-installed XOS and choose the pre-installed VISTA.

In less than a month, Microsoft reversed its downturn, and later moved up in operating system CD-ROM sales, surpassing XOS, demonstrating Microsoft's power.

……

“Bill, try this wine, my friend brought it to me from France, it tastes good.” Paul? Alan handed Bill a goblet? Gates, your face is full of smiles.

All they did was announce that they were going to stop updating the XP system, soaring sales for VISTA and suppressing XOS.

Although VISTA is still not as good as XOS in terms of total sales at this time, this month VISTA has come to the top, taking less than a year, maybe six months is enough, and VISTA will take full advantage.

You may not be able to make XOS disappear, but XOS will only appear on those low-end netbooks later, and any computer with a good configuration will choose their VISTA!

Fight us Microsoft, you're doomed to fail!

Bill Gates sipped a glass of wine for Paul? Alan nodded satisfied: “This is a nice wine, which estate it belongs to, and my wife might like it too. ”

“I still have a lot of them, you like, and I'll have them delivered to you tomorrow. Take out your treasured cigar, and we should smoke a winning cigar.” Paul? Alan Haha laughed.

Bill Gates also smiled and found the cigar, where they sat swallowing clouds of mist.

In the first phase, it looks like they won Microsoft, so just by winning the chase, expanding their market share and boosting their reputation over the next few months, it's enough to completely suppress XOS, like fruit companies' systems, to the point where they can only think about computers.

Even though they were eventually separated from some markets by Silver Mountain, Microsoft was still the master of the operating system and still had the ultimate say!

After winning on the operating system, the office software will also have to suppress Silver Mountain again and reclaim their market, which is very profitable.

Balmer, knock on the door. Come in, Paul? Alan was in a good mood to ask him to try the wine too, but Ballmer refused directly.

“Bill, Paul, I think you're celebrating too early. Didn't you see the online comments about our system?” Ballmer looked at the two people celebrating, sighed, this hasn't won all yet, is it too early to celebrate?

“Comment? See. I mean, you're not used to it. What's this? Of course, it's to get users to adjust slowly, get used to it, and in no time, they'll like it. Isn't that how our system was rolled out?” Paul? Alan said easily.

He offered to buy Ballmer a drink today, but he didn't give me face. Boo, next time you want to drink, I won't give it!

“Different, at that time our system, it was a surprise to the user, it was simple. But our new system does have a lot of functionality, and the home version is a lot more than even thinking about Silver Mountain's XOS, let alone our upcoming Pro and Enterprise versions. ”

“But just because we have too many new features, users don't adapt so quickly. Many users even think that our current system works better than the previous XP, saying that the worse we do! ”

“And you notice that without XOS reviews, users are good reviews. For the time being, we're oversold, because we're Microsoft, and those PC vendors are launching new computers that pre-install our systems, and there are a lot of users who want to believe us. ”

“But what do we do if all these users are disappointed in us? How do we respond? ”

Bill Gates frowned and scolded: "Steve, you're too dangerous to listen. How can users be disappointed with us at Microsoft? We've always been the best. Besides, don't you know how innovative and time-breaking that VISTA system is? ”

Ballmer wanted to say that a piece of software is very different in the eyes of programmers and consumers. We think it works because we know a lot about IT, and software is the best of the elite.

But the average user, they may be a builder, they may be a teacher, they may be a student, they may even be a farmer. Do they understand that? All they want is ease!

The focus of Microsoft's system was on simplicity, and now it's completely different.

Innovation, innovation, innovation.

Yes, innovation has the potential to take us further, but it can also fail, letting us throw away the beaten mountains!

As Ballmer envisioned, Microsoft should be able to keep them in the vanguard by following the rules. If innovation succeeds, how much market share can it increase? And once it fails, the loss is enormous.

Instead of gambling at all, he thought Microsoft should focus on developing a smaller system, and since internet access instincts were so popular, the Tab-touch spin laptop that Microsoft was promoting should be restarted.

The design philosophy is very advanced, although the combination of the hardware manufacturers made this product fail because of its poor value for money.

This tablet or Bill? Gates brought it up, too. Bill? Gates' dream. But just in time for the promotion, Feng Yu lost his shares, causing Microsoft's share price to fall. And then there was the creation of the Internet bubble, which allowed Microsoft market value to evaporate wildly.

And Microsoft spent a lot of money promoting this Tab tablet, and it turned out to be a failure.

Ballmer felt this tablet had failed not because of design problems, not because it wasn't working well enough, but because it was too expensive and inexpensive.

Of course, these are the reasons why the hardware manufacturers have joined forces, and they don't want Microsoft to go into the PC machine market, not even this tablet.

But the program is perfectly capable of working with IBM or Intel, and with a little profit we can reduce the sale price of this product, and with this product we can compete with those on the Internet.

The premise is to re-announce that the XP system will continue to be updated continuously for many years before someone can purchase it. Now Microsoft's VISTA system, that Tab tablet doesn't necessarily move. Production can be driven, so the selling price will increase again, or you will be stuck in a rough and oligarchy situation.

Too bad Ballmer's the third largest shareholder in the company and CEO of the company, seems to get Bill? Gates' infinite trust, but the truth is that only Ballmer himself knew that he was like a puppet.

Ballmer suddenly felt tired and he was a little tired of living in Microsoft.
