Windows is 'collapsing,' Gartner analysts warn

Calling the situation "untenable" and describing Windows as
"collapsing," a pair of Gartner analysts Thursday said Microsoft must
make radical changes to the operating system or risk becoming a has-been.

In a presentation at a Gartner-sponsored conference in Las Vegas,
analysts Michael Silver and Neil MacDonald said Microsoft has not
responded to the market, is overburdened by nearly two decades of legacy
code and decisions and faces serious competition on a whole host of
fronts that will make Windows moot unless the Redmond, Wash. developer
acts.
