Summary: 13 Microsoft products shut down recently

SOME of our contributors get ridiculed for merely suggesting that Microsoft's future is not certain. Microsoft is still highly dependent on two products — Windows and Office — because the rest of its products, as many as there may be, are simply losing money, not making any. This is a verifiable fact. In addition, numbers have just been released which show a death toll of almost 2 products per month at Microsoft.

Microsoft guns down 13 unlucky productsMicrosoft shuttered, put a hold on and let go of 13 products in the past eight months to help it cut costs, following a profits dive at the company that led to job cuts.

Make of that what you will of Microsoft’s state of commercial health. It’s already borrowing money. By contrast, Red Hat’s workforce, for example, keeps growing. █
