Microsoft is discontinuing Windows Mixed Reality

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Sometimes I feel like Microsoft is just a little too early to the party. Apple is about to release their VR/AR product and even they do it's probably going to be crazy and become popular. Then Microsoft will have missed the wave.
The same can be applied to their Windows phones. Had they suck around a bit they would have had a better market share I think.
Microsoft were hardly early to the game with Windows phones, compare BlackBerry or Symbian. They had some early successes, for instance against Palm. The big failure was to keep deprecating the existing version of Windows phone, in some cases many months before the ongoing version was available, and deprecating the existing hardware along with it. Look at the whole mango/tango Windows phone 7 /Windows phone 8 debacle
Microsoft made Sybians?
There's gotta be a joke about Microsoft screwing us all in there I think right?
