Yeah, M$ was trying to make a single user experience from
desktop/tablet/phone.  It failed miserably.  So bad, they had to give
Windows 10 away for free to keep desktop people from bailing.

Android/Apple still own the tablet and phone platforms.  M$ has tried
multiple times to get market share in the phone area.  Windows CE comes to
mind.  

All are history at this point.  I still say if M$ forces people and
companies to the cloud on their next OS (if there is one), they will no
longer own the desktop.
