Meh, MSFT is still expected to grow at 6 or seven percent, which isn't great at all. Seven percent would be just fine for a stodgy old industrial kind of company. for tech companies in particular, they are growing much slower than average. They rank in the bottom 20 or 30% for software and tech, in terms of revenue growth for the past 5 years. Again, and as companies like google and apple that hands down grow faster than Microsoft get bigger, they'll start to be able to use that size to bully msft.
Right now google is around 70 or 75% of microsofts revenue, but is growing a lot faster on a year to year basis. In a few years, google will overtake msft if the past trends keep on going. At that point, it will be like somebody trying to fight somebody their own size versus fighting somebody that they are bigger than which is the case as of now.

Google is still blank in desktop OS market. Microsoft can use its position in desktop OS market to easily muscle Win phone growth..Google doesnt have any advantage of its mobile OS to increase its desktop OS anywhere soon.. So Microsoft will trump Google for many years to come.
And for the record : Google Revenue is increasing but its profit is still 1/3 of Microsoft : Microsft Q3 profit : $6.37 billions Google Q3 profit : $2.18 billions

What makes you think Google wants a desktop operating system?
Beyond that, Microsoft has been releasing Windows based mobile/phone operating systems since 2000; if they could use their desktop marketshare to muscle into the market why haven't they yet?
