Microsoft is actually a master when it comes to knocking off the competition. When the industry says that Microsoft doesn't get something, then get ready for Microsoft to prove them...

Sigh! Four years and folks are still trying the upsell the cloud. Maybe the NSA is offering an additional bonus? 😛
