Microsoft looking to China to create new products

Craig Mundie of Microsoft China
Microsoft, still not out of the woods yet on its idiotic nonsense with black screens, is expecting its Beijing research center to start producing breakthroughs that could lead to global products in health care and other areas.
Microsoft says its Beijing center, one of six, already has exceeded expectations, producing 260 innovations that have been added to products sold worldwide. The center is Microsoft’s biggest outside the United States, with 350 researchers.
Craig Mundie, the company’s chief research officer, said, ‘They are increasingly poised to produce technical breakthroughs that may in fact be the basis of a whole new business for the company.’
