Windows Phone Market Share Sinks Below 1 Percent (theverge.com)
Tom Warren, reporting for The Verge: Worldwide smartphone sales increased by nearly 4 percent in the recent quarter, but Microsoft's Windows Phone OS failed to capitalize on the growth and dropped below 1 percent market share. Gartner's latest smartphone sales report provides the latest proof of the obvious: Windows Phone is dead. Gartner estimates that nearly 2.4 million Windows Phones were sold in the latest quarter, around 0.7 percent market share overall. That's a decrease from the 2.5 percent market share of Windows Phone back in Q1 2015.
MS was turning around when Steve was running things. Now we have an Indian in charge off affairs. I guess this is what outsourcing has come to. No longer are we content to let USAians run our companies into the ground with foreign workers, Now we are allowing foreigners to head the companies and run them into the ground themselves. They were not content with destroying microsoft, the had to buy a great finnish company and destroy that too.
When the USA is not busy putting our citizens in jail, or cowering away from Putin and China, we spend our time running our great national companies into the ground for the benefit of the stock holders.
