I cannot recall a time when there was more change going on in the technology sector. The latest massive Microsoft reorganization is a case in point.
While Windows is dropping from the central platform for Microsoft—a move that was expected when Satya Nadella took over leadership from Steve Ballmer—it’s the blending of hardware and Azure that will be the most disruptive.
A lot of OEMs seemed to believe that Microsoft would back off hardware, given that Surface was a Ballmer, not Nadella, construct. But this reorganization suggests that not only won’t that be the case, personal hardware will play an even bigger role.
