Is Ma Microsoft calling?


So, Microsoft wants to get into the telephone business. There is a huge reason why Microsoft won't get off the ground without some serious help. QoS.

Quality of Service is going to be a HUGE hurdle for Microsoft to jump over. Not only are there strict government regulations regarding quality of service, but Microsoft has a bit of a perception problem. To wit, would you feel confident that you can pick up the phone and dial 911 without a hitch, if you knew that Microsoft was at the helm?

Not to mention the fact that you'll have to redial ever so often for no apparent reason.

And if you have a fancy machine (with a phone number list), you have to wipe everything out of memory and re-install!
