Actually Google is a good example, like Microsoft it has a lot of tentacles out there, unlike Microsoft it has vision.

Google is trying to see the future.

Microsoft has never done this. They appropriate. If their marketing is successful they squeeze their customers.

It remains to be seen which approach will ultimately be successful.

So far Microsoft has had what 3 hits. The PC, Office Suite, and distributed networks.

Did I forget any?

You mean like Google, which now has over 60 seperate products besides search- not a single one of which makes any money?

This is incorrect. If you have proof that this is true, please post it here to substantiate your claims.
