Of course, the lesson of Capitalism is that success in a broad market relies on marketing the crap out of something, not innovating. Think, well, Microsoft. Success in a niche is pretty much the reverse; innovation is generally critical and can result in a pretty profitable enterprise. Think BMW or Apple or, perhaps a better example of the necessary balance, Porsche.
But for those who believe Microsoft does innovate, here's a little (forgive for this) history.
M$ did of course raise thuggery and exploitation of a market (to put it politely) to a historical high, if that counts as innovation -- but not in the way we think.

I enjoyed reading your post. The information you provided on your blog was very useful. It was a pleasure to read your story. Do you know that touch-typing can be done without looking at the keyboard, the process involves touching the keyboard as you type. Muscle memory involves locating the keys without having to see them and using all of your fingers at the same time. For practice, I recommend typing tests. It is a free online tool that measures your typing speed. With this tool, you can check your typing speed and accuracy. You can use the WPM test profile to test typing speed.
