there isn't. Not in the foreseeable future, hence microsoft, a power ONCE to be reckoned with , once king of the technology mountain will have to sit on the sidelines and prepare for the next "big thing" in technology ... whatever that may be.
As it stands now, unless they get their act together quick smart, they have missed the boat on many different things internet related of which they could have ALREADY dominated if they didn't think the internet was just a fad.
May be do an IBM and go after niche markets that pay well?
I hate to say this, but they have an good research department. Some products, like the kinnect aren't half bad. They may not make the billions a year they do now, but they sure as hell can go do something useful and awesome than be jerks going around suing people.
I don't think Microsoft's primary worry is Internet business at the moment.
Their primary worry is mobile computing, and Android and iOS seem to ruling at the moment, the future is really bleak for Microsoft. And they want some internet services like search, news and email ready when they actually make it big in mobile areas(If at all they every make it big).
So at max MS would be looking at internet services as a catalyst to be ready to get into the reaction at the right time.
As it stands now, unless they get their act together quick smart, they have missed the boat on many different things internet related of which they could have ALREADY dominated if they didn't think the internet was just a fad.
