Mary Jo Foley: Despite lots of wishful thinking by Microsoft haters, Microsoft won’t be destroyed in a day.
When I read analysts, customers, bloggers, partners and others prematurely dancing on Microsoft’s grave because of a loss of a half percent of market share here or a customer loss there, I want to remind them that there is a long legacy — and lots of layers of fat — protecting Microsoft from annihilation. This isn’t a Microsoft apologist talking; it’s a Microsoft realist.
Take the rumor of 15,000-person layoffs that first percolated on Mini-Microsoft’s blog before Christmas. (And keeps re-percolating, thanks to a number of sites like Fudzilla.)

bigjobs: We are all aware that other sites often pick up news and post it before ActiveWin does. We all visit multiple sites. Kindly keep your crybaby thoughts to yourself and act like an adult.
