They are always late to the party and they have an image problem

And they haven't managed to come up with a decent product in decades.

I like some of their developer products that said... Wtf is with their marketing department? I'm a techy and play some games but if someone asked me to buy them a Xbox I honestly don't know which one is best... Xbox one series S? I think??

Now atleast on Playstation I know it's ps5 as it's the biggest number.

You want Nintendo... Switch as it's a different enough name to make it stick.

Imagine going to but a truck... Do you want a Ford f150, a Ford f150 series x or a ford f150 series s? Now keep in mind a Ford f150 can't go on any roads built in last 5 years and if you pick the wrong series letter your speed is capped at 30mph....

Don't get me started on visual studio vs visual studio code....

Teams vs Teams for Work or School vs New Teams. .NET Framework vs .NET Standard vs .NET Core vs what they just call .NET now. Office vs Office 365 vs Microsoft 365. Microsoft is never not confusing.
