Not just another Google - Microsoft comparision
I am tired of people saying how Google will eat away into Microsoft, and how the software Giant will be overshadowed by the new ‘revolution’.
I want to clarify some things. Most often than not, Microsoft has always been very active in either bringing about, or capitalizing on any new revolution.
Microsoft has smart people. Very smart people. They know what they are doing. Just take a look at the research pages of Microsoft and you just have to respect the kind of stuff there. It’s really nice. If a company has invested so much in such varied and futuristic research areas, you can’t elbow them out the way we think Google will.
Things as varied as Virtual Wi-Fi to concurrent programming. That’s the role of a software giant. It sure is giving back to the community. It’s putting so much money to research. What’s wrong if they want to get rich while serving the intellectuals.
Check out the Research Projects Downloads section. If you are my kind, you will find yourself with a lot of respect for M$!
