Ballmer still tilting at Linux
eWeek | at | by Mike
Microsoft has grown its market share in almost all of its businesses over the past year, CEO Steve Ballmer said Thursday, while acknowledging that Linux had also grown its market share over that period.
Speaking to financial analysts, media and investors at its Financial Analyst Meeting here, Ballmer addressed the competitive situation facing the company. "The issue is whether software is a business of innovation and value or will it be commoditized? Microsoft has a chance to create great value and is investing in that," he said.
