3.0 out of 5 stars More a collection of notes and lists on Microsoft than a tech book., 13 Aug 2008
By Bruce Murphy (Australia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is a little difficult to describe. While it touches on company history and the company politics and structure at the point of Gates leaving, it's also bulked out considerably with long laundry lists of current and future projects and divisions with fairly minimal original commentary on what most of it means. It contains about as much interesting material as, and looks as if a leading tech reporter on microsoft was forced to collect all their notes on microsoft in the next 3 years and staple them into a volume without adding more commentary, which was disappointing. People who can't stomach an obvious pro-microsoft viewpoint will find this book makes them angry.

4.0 out of 5 stars Olavi Soosaar, 5 Feb 2009
By E. Soosaar "OS" (Estonia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Mary Jo Foley sums up the doings of Microsoft, but makes a lot of far reached assumptions for the future that may or may not come true. Gives insight on what are their strong and weak points carring out those future plans.
