Microsoft did not win the competition. Bill Gates was just at the right place at the right time, and nothing more. Microsoft does not innovate technology they only imitate existing technology and put a Microsoft logo across it.

***** I'm a fan of what the Business has accomplished. Apple almost went bankrupt in 1996 and now they are the highest valued company in the world. No company in History has ever done that. I can't help it if you have a limited intellect and can't understand how incredible that is for any corporation to do.

james hartley Yeah, we'll just overlook all of those antitrust lawsuits. The most famous being over Internet Explorer. You do know that Germany blocked windows from being on every PC in the country. And there are four Scandinavian countries that are seeking to do the exact same thing? Microsoft was the first company to come out with a tablet computer in the early nineties, then again in the late nineties. They failed both times, Apple succeeded with the iPad. Do I even have to mention how poorly Bing is doing vs Google? The Microsoft Surface lost over $400 million dollars, according to last year's stockholders report. People are not buying them. Microsoft was the first company to mass produce an mp3 player, the zoon was their second attempt, they failed both times, Apple succeeded with the iPod. Apple is the highest valued company in the world, where exactly is Microsoft on that list... Not even in the top 10.

james hartley Yes, I'm going purely from profit because these are Corporations not Charities. Apple innovates and Microsoft just rehashing the same old tired operating system every two years. Apple wins!
