Siegler about Microsoft and the Post-PC era
Another must read post written by MG Siegler.
No matter what you think of HP’s big moves this past week, their step away from the PC world speaks volumes. They’re not doing it because they’re batshit crazy. They’re doing it because sales are declining and the margins suck. They’re doing it because they can’t beat Apple.
It’s not a good sign for an industry when the leader of that industry quits and walks away. No amount of spin can change that.
It is indeed not a very good sign. We will need to wait and see what the future brings us, but I think tablets, uhum, iPads will push the PC to the background.
