| | GROWTH PLANS/SPECIAL FEATURES | Microsoft Corp. develops, manufactures and supports software for businesses, government and consumers. Microsoft operates in five segments. The client segment produces technical architecture, engineering and product delivery of the Windows product family. Vista, the latest generation of Windows operating system, includes advances in security, digital media, user interfaces, and other areas that enhance the user and developer experience. The server and tools segment develops and markets Windows server products and operating systems; builds standalone and software development lifecycle tools for software architects, developers, testers and project managers; and provides consulting and product support services. The online services business segment provides personal services including MSN Search; Windows Live; Windows Live Hotmail and others. The business division offers the Microsoft Dynamics business solutions and the Microsoft Office system. The entertainment and devices division is responsible for developing, producing and marketing the Xbox video game system, including consoles and accessories, third-party games, games published under the Microsoft brand and Xbox Live operations, as well as research, sales and support of those products. The Xbox is a major generator of the company’s revenue at present time, with over 10 million consoles sold in the U.S. and 19 million worldwide. In 2007, Microsoft acquired Fast Search & Transfer, a leading provider of enterprise search solutions; Danger, Inc., which will become a part of the new Premium Mobile Experiences (PMX) team within the Mobile Communications Business of the Entertainment and Devices Division at Microsoft; Rapt, Inc., a leading provider of advertising yield management solutions for digital media publishers; and, for roughly $6 billion, aQuantive, Inc., which acquisition will help Microsoft deliver on its previously outlined goal to provide the advertising industry with a world-class advertising platform across devices and media that will create the best experiences for users, advertisers and publishers. |
