How Microsoft Took the 'Win' Out of Windows zdnet.com And that's where the Windows industry stands today. Paralyzed by the perception that Microsoft owns all but the most picayune opportunities -- and will crush any company that proves otherwise. In response, venture capital is pouring into every tech sector except the Windows arena. Ooops! Now Microsoft is worried it has succeeded itself into failure. Hoping to remedy the situation, President Steve Ballmer recently traipsed through Silicon Valley and pleaded with venture capitalists to support Windows products. In addition, small-time companies now receive audiences with once-untouchable Microsoft execs, who are suddenly desperate for success stories to showcase. I've even heard Microsoft is considering getting into the venture capital game itself, to fund independent Windows developers.
