2024 has seen two mass layoffs at Microsoft, with 1900 staff laid off in January, before a further 650 Xbox employees were shown the door in September.

Regardless, Microsoft’s shares are up and the company’s market value is now higher than $3tn, as it works to capitalise on the rise of AI.

    Well Windows wasn’t an important Microsoft product for like 15 years now. It’s been like 7 years when Microsoft is a company mostly selling cloud Linux services. Ridiculous I know, but that’s from their yearly financial reports. It seems their plan is to cash out Windows as fast as possible before dropping it.
