#325330 — Micro$oft's smartphone debacle

The stroy is a few months old, but WTF.

"Microsoft is cutting 7,800 jobs primarily in its phone business, and
the company is writing off $7.6 billion related to its acquisition of
the Nokia phone business. That's more than the $7.2 billion Microsoft
paid for Nokia's phone business last year."

http://www.theverge.com/2015/7/8/8910999/microsoft-job-cuts-2015-nokia-write-off

Wow!  Nice job, nice investment, Blammer!

But, I have to admit, it must be nice to be able to drop over 14
BILLION dollars in a failed attempt to carve-out a significant chunk
of the smartphone market.

It's no wonder why a business partnership with M$ has been called "the
kiss of death".

Oh, I dunno, maybe Nokia would support that "kiss of death" theory.

There are a fair number of others as well, documented at Groklaw.

Bullshit!  Nokia was in trouble well before going the Windows route.
Samsung was and still is making the bulk of whatever profits are left for
Android mfgs.

It might have taken slightly longer for Nokia to die if they hadn't gone
with MS, but that's all.

It is simply amazing how simplistically you loonies look at big business
and how little you understand it.

Because of Android breakout.
They could get out of trouble by simply making Android phones as
others...

Sure. Like they are only one...

It is simply amazing how "Lloyd" contributes a mix of trivia and
stupidity, and thinks that it shows that the ignorant bastard has a
better understanding of business than we do.

If "Lloyd" wasn't so dull-witted and dishonest, I would ask him to
analyse *why* M$ has struggled so much in the phone market, despite
their massive investment in product and marketing, and draw parallels
to Linux on the desktop.  It's really not rocket science, but I am
certain he would fail.

Pretty much everyone outside of the linux loon division has a better 
understanding of business.

Well even though you haven't really asked me I'll make a few comments.

After Apple and Android snatched the phone market away from MS a number 
of years ago, MS didn't really do much in response to attempt to switch 
that back a bit.

And then they let time become their enemy.  Nothing was really going on 
with MS with tablets and phones until late in the party.  Just look at 
the Surface line for some indications.  Surface was late to the party and 
took a drubbing in the press and market with the early SurfaceRT and a 
somewhat less drubbing with the early SPs.  MS kept hammering at it and 
now have a pretty good lineup with that line.

The biggest thing that made that happen was that there was already a ton 
software for a computer.  Unfortunately for MS, there really wasn't for 
the Windows Phone and that has continued right up to now.  Lack of 
software for the WP has been the problem all along and so far, there's 
not much indication that will change though there are some that think 
with the upcoming WP10 and the 'universal' app idea that things will get 
better.  We'll get to see that unfold going forward.

IF MS is serious about the phone business, and from all indications they 
are, then they should be able to increase the size of their niche in the 
market.  Frankly if they could solve the app issue there's lots to like 
about the WPs.

But it is a pretty big nut to crack.  iOS has a firm grip on the premium 
end of the phone/tablet market and Android has just as firm a grip on the 
medium to low end of the market.  Couple that with the fact that the 
sales people push Android and iOS much harder than WP.

It's pretty clear that they don't understand the term "writing off" and 
equally that they don't get that Microsoft has *not* pulled out of Nokia 
nor the mobile market.

And they look great. Apparently, the high-end model can support MicroSD
cards with up to 2TB of storage. That, right there, makes it very likely
that I will be ripping my music as FLAC from now on. The funny part
about the 955 (I believe) is that it comes with 3GB of RAM. While I
understand that such a high amount is necessary for slow operating
systems like Android, 1GB has always performed wonderfully on my
handset. I can't imagine how fast that device is.

It's pretty clear that you are a bald-faced liar, because there is
*zero* indication that we don't understand what you claim we do not.

We "don't get" that M$ has not "pulled out" of Nokia or the mobile
market?  Really?  

And where is the indication that we don't understand the term "writing
off"?

While you're at it, why not throw-in a claim that we think that the
moon is made of green cheese, you filthy fscking liar?

>>> Right.  MS just announced 3 new Windows Phones.

Figures that Lying Lloyd would "right" such lying assholery, such
*completely* baseless attacks on the advocates.  What a prick!

Nice snippage chicken shit.  Noticed you had nothing really to say but 
felt compelled to use plenty of foul language to not say anything at all.

And there is a perfect example of why the Linux "community" is looked on 
as a bunch of socially inept basement dwellers.

If you need to resort to insults and swearing, you have clearly lost the 
argument.
