If you think about it Microsoft is late to the dance when it comes to mega-networking.

If Google has a brain fart that's one thing but this is a product that businesses require to function esp. post-Covid. If they can't effectively communicate, they can't make money. I can only hope Microsoft makes their network more robust.
