What can we expect next at Microsoft?

1. Ballmer appears to have committed to fight to the death in his effort to defend & extend Windows. So expect death as resources are poured into the unwinnable battle to convert users from iOS and Android.

3. Expect substantial layoffs over the next 3 years. They could even reach 50-60%, or more, of employees.
