Restructuring Microsoft

According to reports, Microsoft will unveil its new restructuring on Thursday.
The one-time tech leader is looking to change its form into something better suited to today’s environment. But just what will those changes entail?
I’m thinking they’ll split into two major division: Stuff That Works and Stuff That’s Crap.
The Stuff That Works will continue to support the Xbox 360, the Microsoft Mouse, Microsoft Surface Pro, and Microsoft Security Essentials.
The Stuff That’s Crap division will encompass Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Surface RT, Xbox One, and just about everything else.
Products and services like Microsoft office, which are currently slated for the Stuff That’s Crap division could wind up in Stuff That Works, but that’s still uncertain.
Now, will Microsoft really do this? Well, they already have. At least, that’s how I’ve thought of there stuff for years. On Thursday, they have the chance to make it official.
Will they? Probably not.
Will the restructuring work? Are you kidding? The people that brought you Clippy, Microsoft Bob, the Zune, and the Ken? What could possibly go wrong?
