Microsoft Should Dump Middlemen, Build Own Phones

Yes, but they should still do it because Peter Bright, the author of the article, is a multi-multi-billionaire who made his money in consumer electronics. Wait, that not right, his bio tells us:

Peter Bright dropped out of university after about five minutes to work as a programmer. He now lives in London, where he enjoys trolling, reading 4chan, gorging on burritos, and musing about the future of Microsoft.

So, never mind. He's just another Internet person with an opinion which isn't backed up by either knowledge or experience.
