Sinofsky was a great tech leader and shipper of products. The people who replaced him seems weak sauce. I'm not sure if firing someone creates faster progress

I'm not sure if firing someone creates faster progress in an area vs. just shipping more products.
- watmough 14y agoYes, this is a strange article. The reality is that MS were way behind the tablet curve, having plugged the same old tiny buttons, traditional Windows, use a stylus, furrow for years and years. Bolting Metro onto Windows 7 is likely to please very few, least of all corporate customers. If Sinofsky is as bad as painted, could he really have turned around the Longhorn mess, salvaged Vista, then reshaped the organization to do a fantastic job with Windows 7?
