Comments on: Microsoft Says Go Direct to Windows 7 http://www.slaw.ca/2009/05/20/microsoft-says-go-direct-to-windows-7/ Canada's online legal magazine Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:45:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Lawnix Law http://www.slaw.ca/2009/05/20/microsoft-says-go-direct-to-windows-7/comment-page-1/#comment-704825 Lawnix Law Sat, 23 May 2009 15:26:39 +0000 http://www.slaw.ca/?p=8716#comment-704825 I think Microsoft is on to something with this bold new business approach. Rather than produce inefficient, resources-wasting products shot through with securities flaws, and then create patch after patch to fix them later, they simply leap ahead to the next inefficient, resource-wasting product shot through with securities flaws. Why fix something when you can just make it obsolete? This isn't the auto industry where the profit comes from fixing the product rather the initial sale itself.
