Microsoft wants to get into this PC lark

Software giant Microsoft is not the best at picking where the industry is going, it missed the Internet and failed to get into mobile so the news that it is thinking of getting into the PC hardware business just as it is dying is not surprising.

Redmond has been trying to make hardware a bit more of a priority lately and been making some good calls with its Surface Pro line of tablets and Surface Book laptop. However word on the street is that these are just the tip of Redmond’s PC iceburg and it is going push its own desktops.
