Its only natural that Google comes out as the winner.
Think about it. Microsoft has been there for decades. Every major
empire crumbles at some point of the time. And in my opinion,
Microsoft just accelerated its path to death by releasing the
poorly executed Vista. During the switch from Windows XP to Windows
Vista, it found many of its advanced technical users jumping wagons
from Windows XP to the Linux distros. Yes it is just a mere 1% or
2%, but it has started.
Google is the new age warrior with some of the best minds working
behind it with fun and fervor. I have heard/read of real Google
employees who really enjoy their work and workplace. Its treating
its employees well. Way better than Microsoft. The pace at which
its growing is also noticeable by any guy you pick off the street.
Most known brand name is Google. Its everywhere. And guess what? It
doesn't own any OS, yet its so well known. Says quite a lot. One
search page to search anything. The word Google has even seeped
into our vocabulary! How often have you heard people saying "Have
you googled it?", "I was googling when I found this!" or "He's like
a google!". This shows the growing good perception of the company
among the public which is most important. The same cannot be said
for Microsoft though.
So even though Microsoft is the biggest giant right now, soon it
will be all over. Google will be the new king. By soon I mean at
least a decade or two.
