They basically abandoned the desktop market with Metro to gain a foothold in the phone market which is currently being bulldozed by Android. Not a smart move.
I've never really understood this mindset, or rather concept; I've seen it in a few places but most of the information I can get on the matter contradicts it. From what I understand, Win8 sold more copies in 1 month than Windows 7 sold in 3 months, for example; I don't really call that a 'failure' by any stretch. Dunno about the Surface. I thought it was pretty cool, to be fair. (it's like a tablet, but actually works for content creators and not just consumers)
apple is scared to because microsoft has A LOT more money than them.
Last I checked, Apple was the most valuable company in the world. It's funny cause in the 90s, Apple needed hundreds of millions of dollars to stay alive, which was given by who else? Microsoft.

That's mostly phones, not desktop models or laptops. On a desktop or non-touch laptop the OS is a catastrophe.

Microsoft is tanking because of Win8 and Surface.

And the iPad is a joke. $300 for an underpowered piece of junk with a gaudy touchscreen.
And the Macbook is a joke. $1,000 for an underpowered piece of junk with a gaudy case.
And the GTX 660 is a joke. $200 for an underpowered piece of junk with a gaudy fan.
The thing is that people don't care about underpowered. They care about gaudy.
