Kara, you rock. This was a hilarious rendition of what we hear every day. When I worked at Intel, they always predicted on the down side, and I see MSFT does the same thing. Then they can over deliver next time. BUT that doesn’t take away from the fact that no one is unaffected by the econolypse (my preferred spelling). The difference is that MSFT will lay off and survive, whereas others cannot lay off fast or furiously enough. This is a sea change in American life, and we needed it.
