My view on the triangle Goolge-Apple-Microsoft

On mine, the user 's point of view the only advantage Epla - a usability. This applied a lot of different flaws - the high price of iron, proprietary platform, the lack of intelligent software, poor distribution, and most importantly, for most business users - the absence of the usual and familiar packages. In addition, a climb is not in their field - Cloud services are again tied to the rest of the software and hardware. In the Cloud - is a serious competitor, who, if they wish to offer the user a good decision that will be competitive in functionality and price (if not free). All the company's success can be called a more tactical than strategic. Another problem the company - Jobs. It will not last forever, and not the fact that someone else will be able to persuade kastomerov to buy expensive hardware. We've seen But without Steve Jobs - the company just is not bent.
T, for all the success in the search box, and Claudia climbs not in his field, where his position is not strong, and not a fact that will. Promotion of operating systems - not a trivial task, and not the fact that T can negotiate with the producers of iron. Claudio, too, is a colossus with feet glinannyh. With all the convenience of all services for documents, they are very far from the Ward and Excel (I'm not talking about PP). And if MS will hit the market with the online version of Office that is a very good chance that a large number of users abandon the product T. And because the familiar interface and functionality. And do not do this. In this case, no one disputes the primacy of T in the search and advertising.
MS is now changed strategy. Having a large number of users, the ecosystem of distributors, developers and tech support (with tools ), it can very easily beat out competitors from their niches and related. Qualitative Office 2010 - can easily move the D redox (due to standard formats, and a familiar interface and functionality ), light output of the operating system can easily move with the D niches, which he thinks to take. Just deciding the issue of usability (which shows the Win 7), security ( released their anti-virus ) and the reliability can be returned to customer loyalty and divert them from a. Money they have, the desire to do all this, too, is ( as far as I saw on the summit of Sun MC ). If you do not fakapnut the case, then A and D have been large but niche players, and will remain.
