Let’s see. Microsoft is 30 years old and I use Windows and occasionally office. I also use a $10 mouse that says Microsoft on it.
On the other hand, Google is 7 years old, and I use their search and now Maps several times a day, Gmail, Blogger, Groups, Froogle, Desktop Search, Picasa, and a few other things. And Google doesn’t force me to keep buying more powerful PCs just to use their products.
Maybe Microsoft should spend a little less time looking at Google, and a little more on their products. Framing all of their products in terms of Google just keeps reminding me of Google.
I don’t use Windows. I use Office only when I have to (someone sends me something in one of their formats). And I have a couple of $10 MS rats lying around.
But I use Google daily, Froogle weekly, Maps weekly (or more). I would try Desktop Search if they released a client for it, but not with Spotlight on the case.
is this an extension of mind-numbing political campaigns we see, where the successful candidate spends all his time slamming the other guy instead of telling us what he’s about?
