Story: Microsoft: Windows 7 development on track
Shake those Monkeys!
Forgive the South Park analogy but this is pure marketing spin. I obviously wouldn't go as far as saying that he's lying. Of course not.
To be fair to MS they have a relatively good track record of pulling back from the brink of disaster - Windows ME -> Windows 2000 etc.
But honestly, does Ballmer really believe that people are satisfied with what they get from MS? The truth is most people don't know any better. MS's business model relies on consumer ignorance.
Fortunately evidence also suggests that when people are introduced to viable alternatives - Firefox, OpenOffice, LAMP, Eclipse etc. they adopt them in their droves.
