Microsoft owns five of the top ten platforms used by enterprises. These enterprises pay them tons of money to make these platforms run, some spending more than $100M each.

Loved in the Silicon Valley pilot when Gavin Belson sneers at Richard's app because it's for consumers not enterprise.

I think it's willful disdain for corporate culture, the last vestige of anti "selling out".
