What? How many companies are there which exist on writing software for the Windows platform? 10,000? 50,000? More?

Writing commercial application software for mainstream business and operating at a break-even or profit? I'd say less than 30.

The problem is not that MS makes the only products that suck, but that they manage to kill the market for other companies so there's no incentive to compete on quality. I don't expect you to ever be able to see this.
