First time in 10 years that softie has warned.

If not could this be a symptom of:

1. recession
2. poor management
3. products not up to expectations
4. other?


How about a mix of a lot of things.

How about slowing desktop computer sales and being constrained from taking aggressive action to counteract it by the lawsuit hanging over their head?

I'm hoping Janet Reno's replacement will give Microsoft the option of settling the lawsuit instead of pressing to ruin one of America's most successful companies.
