No. Thats right, but not what I meant.Thats why I put " (software for Microsoft) "
Apple makes money off their hardware, plus apps, etc. Micrsosoft is the same except they make the money off software. At the end of the day, both make a retail margin once by way of a sale of a Apple device, or of a OS that goes on a Windows device. Just once. After that Microsft is wanting to emulate Apple by garnering regular smaller revenue by way off apps, music, etc. And with that, marry the user to Windows by way of ease of use, and integration.
To me they are trying to mirror their business with Apple. Thats a good move as its proven. They are WAY late to market, but the brand and a growing app store will bring them into the big three befiore long. maybe a year, maybe two. I see Android struggling, as they will be the odd one out
