Hi
Im a guy from Denmark who recently saw the the advantages of using mac.
Sadly i love the office programs (still - havent tried seriosly the mac
programs yet, but maybe i should), because they are the ones i am used to use
in my daily work/study/life.
I have read most of the post on this site, and I think you are
underestimating the potential oppertunety and threats about this issue. This
post is meant as a good advice on a strategic level for you.
Clearly their is a market demand for one-note. If i wanted to win market
shares in the long term from Microsoft, here's my chance.
Mac are getting more popular all the time, and if microsoft cant see this,
then you are suffering from one of the greates threats a firm can experience.
Lack of indifference becaus you firm has gotten so big. Whar usually happens
is that "the big firms" slow down and stop to compete and developing edge new
technology software - what is mac doing and why are they succesful in these
times???
If you dont create it, somone else will. Some else might even create a new
office pack for mac, that is simular to yours. After all the only reason we
like office programs is becaus we are used to using it. What if got used to
using something else.
You are looking at this in the very short term, to genreate profit in the
short scale. Let me ask you this. Do you think the demand for one-note will
increase og decrease over the next 10 years? How many mac computers do you
think there will be in 10 years with the current growth rates? Would it be a
good strategic deciession to be ready for the future (in this area to) when
the trends are going this way?
In short - i think your are a sleeo inthis matter, and for my own concern,
if theri was to be made a new program that had same qualeties as the office
pack + one note, I would seriuosly consider it. So be smart now on how to
genreate your profits in the future and still maintain your monopoly.
