Windows has long been the key to Microsoft's business. But Microsoft is being targeted from all sides by Mac OS X Lion and Google's new Chrome OS. In order for Windows to continue to be a dominant force over the long term, Microsoft must make some changes. But that won't happen until there is a management shakeup.
Hewlett-Packard did what many in the technology industry through it wouldn't—it drastically changed its management structure to better fit its changing focus.
