I doubt I would use a Google OS in the near future, but I am already reaping the rewards from MS. The 3 app restriction probably cost MS a ton of revenue. The Cloud computing initiatives are the bigger threat to MS with companies like Google chipping away at the Office suite. Also, Netbooks are probably appropriate for 75% of all home users (pulled the number from thin air). |
Cloud computing is gonna give Google OS users lots of things for free. MS are in trouble.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
