Microsoft Quotations
Microsoft Quotes from:
-
Amazon Quotes
Apple knows a lot of data. Facebook knows a lot of data. Amazon knows a lot of data. Microsoft used to, and still does with some people, but in the newer world, Microsoft knows less and less about me. Xbox still knows a lot about people who play games. But those are the big five, I guess.

Became Quotes
It became clear to me by 1984 that Microsoft was likely going to be the big winner in the PC software apps and operating system category, partly because of the dynamics of owning and controlling the operating system: that gave you enormous power, and I came to see Bill Gates was fierce competitor.

Aside Quotes
To help staff recharge and think better, companies are setting aside quiet places to relax, practise yoga or even take a nap. With hi-tech giants such as Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft underlining the pitfalls of being 'always on,' firms are imposing speed limits on the information superhighway.

Able Quotes
I remember back in the early days of Microsoft that from the day that you decided that you were just going to put out an ad to a customer - and all you were usually able to tell them was that a new product was available - it was about nine months before you could actually reach the first customer.
-
Running Quotes
In market research I did at Microsoft Corp. in the early 1990s, I estimated that the 'Wall Street Journal' took in about 75 cents per copy from subscribers, $1.25 at the newsstand and a whopping $5 per copy from ads. The ad revenue let them run a far bigger newsroom than subscribers were paying for.

Ability Quotes
The possibilities of that tie-in are endless if one contemplates the possibility of software and tools delivered over the Internet and paid for by online adverts. This also gives Microsoft the ability to control its own destiny and eliminate the service that Yahoo is providing selling the ads.
-
Actively Quotes
The percentage of customers who say they are actively looking to replace Microsoft has gone up. When it comes down to it, some people aren't going to be able to do it (migrate off of Windows and Office). But where Microsoft can be replaced, it's become a real fashionable thing to do.

Believe Quotes
We believe that January sales may have been even worse had Microsoft continued its marketing push, and believe that sell through was helped in part by deep discounting of new releases during the month. January marked the fifth consecutive month of software sales decline, and we expect a return to double-digit sales declines in February, with an accelerating rate of decline in March.
-
Adapted Quotes
What we're seeing is a great deal of customization on country and industry levels. When Microsoft was developing its CRM, it made sure that it was built on a Web services architecture so that it can be easily adapted to specific local needs and requirements. We don't ship an out-of-the-box, property-management application, for instance, but those in real estate using the software can easily add apartment information without adding programming code.

Advance Quotes
What we need are specifics, a proposal on the table, so we can really evaluate whether Microsoft is serious about settlement talks, or whether it is just using the talk about talk to advance its public relations position, which has suffered grievously during this trial because their case has been so weak.
-
Angst Quotes
We really dont have concerns. We've always had a partnership with Microsoft that allows us to understand their direction, and when it comes to broad, horizontal, basic services markets, they're great at it, ... If I want to be a partner of Microsoft, I can't have angst around Microsoft going after these broad, horizontal services.

Access Quotes
We've shipped a new version of Windows, we've paid an historic fine and we've provided unprecedented access to Microsoft technology to promote interoperability with other industry players. Yet every time we make a change, we find that the Commission moves the goal post and demands another change.

Access Quotes
The fact that Microsoft has now started to find bugs on its own seems promising, but it needs to be more than a one-time occurrence. Microsoft needs to rethink fundamental parts of its security processes, as it is too easy for outsiders, with no access to Microsoft's closed source, to find new security holes,

Both Quotes
The fact that Intel doesn't really offer very low-power x86 devices that are compatible with the Internet infrastructure and Microsoft really doesn't offer a robust Internet operating system that can be used without a hard disk drive has led to this opening. We've capitalized on both of those vectors, and customers like it and are buying it.
