為什麼微軟並不需要向你收錢？
Consumers may interact with Microsoft products every day, but apparently they're not making the company much cash. The money trail shows Microsoft drifting away from consumers and closer to business. Will it products follow suit?
Microsoft delivered a pleasant surprise to investors this week, revealing earnings of $5.1 billion for its third fiscal quarter of 2012. That’s down a bit from a the year-ago figure of $5.23 billion, but that was boosted by a one-time tax benefit. All told, the numbers were stronger than analysts and investors has expected, particularly since sales of its flagship Windows operating system ought to be lukewarm, as both consumers and business put off purchases of new software and new computers in anticipation of Windows 8.
