So MSFT is no longer a software company. What’s the impact to developers using MSFT stack? Positive or negative? Will you rethink about your career path?

a software service isn't software.
Bing is a software service, Skype is a software service, and a service version Office is coming soon. you don't install any of that, you just use it from your browser or other device.

Ballmer is about to retire, not Mummy.

Apart from keyboard and mouse, Microsoft is a software company.
All other hardware presented by Microsoft were failure; with the exception of the XBox
I'd rather be phishing!

Huh, this little WebCam thingy in front of me is marked "Microsoft".

It does not run a bastardized version of Windows.
and it was probably design and manufactured outside of Microsoft.

xbox?
Skype?
Bing?
none of those are software (two are services, one is a device).
that's what Ballmer says MS is going to become. less emphasis on selling software, more emphasis on selling services and devices.
