I never hear about them, but as weird as it is, they're doing better than ever apparently.

Bigger revenue than ever, their operating income is apparently less (negative) than during what I would have called their hayday.

Wow Don Mattrick on wikipedia is "best known as former Zynga ceo". That's sure not true!

Guess I last read about them around his departure in 2015.
