Like many on HN, I'm not a fanatic MS guy (despite having a deep C# background) but I'm happy to see them do well this past quarter. They've only had a series of bad PR recently, epitomized by the CEO stepping down being the highlight story of the year.
But this doesn't talk about specifics. Consumer devices? I don't really understand which product is doing so well for them? I know it's anecdotal but I still have yet to hear someone recommend a microsoft product in the last 6-12 months. The only people that bought their phone were people that bought because of price point.
Can someone shed some light on what microsoft has been selling that everyone wants? I'm really curious now.
