At least MSFT got the hardware right. The word "solution" usually denotes the soup-to-nuts application based on hardware, net architecture and software etc. This is still a major embarassment to their brand in the hardball high-stakes business space. I am not saying anyone should short MSFT.

Hotmail runs on UE10000... Bzzzt. Hotmail, by edict, was transitioned to the same dogfood they run at microsoft.com, rudedog. They announced it quite loudly. You Spintel fellows have really chosen a bad set of incidents to attempt misdirection on. MS, has been unusually forthcoming about these recent outages, and have as much as admitted these problems are related to their architecture. -JCJ
