Windows needed to die a long time ago… so whatever. Same with XBOX and their phone, just a waste of time. Microsoft never made a product worth owning.
But the days of Gates saying to every department “how does this sell more windows” are long gone.
Many years ago a Microsoft team told me that the only thing important was data. The more the better. Windows wasn’t important, products were not important. Harvesting data and creating services was the future and nothing else mattered.

Android and iOS have made companies fortunes. But keep telling yourself Windows Phone needed to die.
Same with game consoles. Switch I & II have made Nintendo a ton of money.
These Microsoft products would have been profitable in the hands of a company that actually cared about them.
Yeah but they were microsoft. So they sucked. That’s how it works. Maybe in the hands of someone else it wouldn’t have been Microsoft crap.
