Microsoft continues to shock

Just two days after announcing a delay in the release of Windows Vista, Microsoft bombarded the technology village. The software giant has just announced an important turmoil in its Windows division, just 48 hours after disappointing people with the decision to postpone the release of Windows Vista.

Accordingly, Steven J. Sinofsky, a long-time official in charge of Microsoft Office, has been upholding the power of the entire Windows and Windows Live group, which is also the future of the Vista operating system. And James E. Allchin, a Windows official who has long been "abdicating" at the end of the year on the grounds of: Retiring.

Specifically, Sinofsky will focus on planning future Windows versions, while Jill Allchin will work closely with another official, Brian Valentine, to complete Windows Vista. Ben Fathi, a "boss" who is in charge of archiving and file systems, will lead the Security Technology Division (Security is one of the reasons Microsoft offers to justify its Vista release delay). .

New factor

According to analysts, the latest move from Microsoft shows that the internal management of the company has realized the need to improve product distribution systems and relationships with major partners. Among these are computer manufacturers who have been disappointed with how to postpone Microsoft's release of Vista.

More extensively, Microsoft envisions that they need to be active and quick to fight new online rivals, such as Google - but still have to maintain their traditional, long-lived products. "They have put in the leadership of the most quintessential stars. Gradually, they will build an effective executive team and meet the requirements of the new market."

Microsoft announced the morning staffing change in the email to employees of Kevin R. Johnson, director of platform and services. " These changes are intended to help us be more sensitive, younger, more open to new ideas like software + services, as well as ensure a good future for us ," Johnson wrote.

Reform the rooftop

Microsoft has been making a lot of progress in the reforms for a long time: Last fall, CEO Steven A.Ballmer announced a large-scale reform in the business department, to encourage Encouraging the motto "dare to dare to dare, speed up to win" and give consumers the products and services they most want.

In fact, many Microsoft employees began to worry that the software giant was bogged down by its bulky size, when faced with competition from a wide range of industries, from real estate. Online products from Google, Yahoo, AOL until Sony Corp.'s game.

Most analysts have identified this disturbance of Windows personnel as a smart move, because Microsoft is facing the situation of increasingly saturated Windows market, while rivals increasingly strong. But it is still too early to conclude whether these reforms will help Microsoft compete successfully.
