A lot of failed/failing projects..

Trying to fix the already broken Vista, attack the ipod/itunes (zune or somethin), new search engine to fight google, rip off firefox for IE7, uMPC, etc..

The list goes on and on.. they do a lot of research and development.. it just doesnt make them money most of the time..
