John Dvorak writes about the Eight Signs Microsoft Is Dead in the Water:

For the past year or so, this is what I’ve been telling people in private. Now that there appears to be some sputtering by both the stock and by those who defend Microsoft I think it might be high time to explain my position.

Let me preface by saying that Microsoft is not about to stop making gobs of money. It’s just that there is virtually nothing interesting or exciting happening (with the lone exception of the X-Box360) with anything the company is doing….

Compare what is going on at Microsoft to Apple. And now Apple is piling on with new TV commercials ridiculing all the viruses and security issues you buy when you buy a Windows-based PC. Microsoft advertising ironically highlights dinosaurs.

It’s a great read, and Dvorak has a lot of really good points. Sorry, Microsoft. Better luck next time.
