They fail at every attempt to innovate

That's not true! In the 90s the Sidewinder input devices were sometimes really good! The strategic commander never happened, and I definitely didn't buy it, stop asking!

But the FF joysticks and the gamepad were really good.

Hahaha holy cow. My dad had a sidewinder joystick. It was called a thrust master or something. Nostalgia.

They made the best wireless mouse I've ever owned under that naming moniker. The SideWinder X8. Big and heavy, which I love. Magnetic charging cable you could use while still using the mouse.

There was already an entire cloud market when azure appeared . They just followed the wave . If you are going to give cloud as an example talk me about Oracle or VMware .

And they mainly innovate in being strange to configure. I have some issues with AWS, but I had massive pains with Azure.
