Huh? That's not even remotely accurate. It took Microsoft almost a decade just to hit 2% market share for the surface laptop brand and they have yet to throw in the towel.

Skype for Business wasn't even a rounding error on their balance sheet or market share and they stuck with that for almost 20 years, eventually rolling it into Teams.

This is ridiculous. If anything Microsoft is famous for the opposite. They have the warchest and the patience to grind their way into new markets the slow way. Microsoft's XBox project took many years and many millions of dollars before it finally broke away. Surface tablets and laptops have never been dominant but Microsoft continues to plug away at the market. Bing has been on the market for nearly 15 years and people still only use its name in jest.

You mean Google

Bing
