The same thign that M$ with your info..and I never said Google doesn't make money on Android..Google makes 90% money on adwords and everything they do is based around it. That said Android is open source and you can completely remove Google out of android such as Motorola did for AT&T and plans to do for China
It has many software features yes its been out for YEARS and is a mature platform...hardware features on the other hand are HORRIBLE
I agree about the control on hardware..but its M$ fault..their mentality was 5 years ago..now their mentality is 2 years ago..progress I guess...
Yes because they were more mature platforms but M$ won out because it was business oriented and M$ had a huge tie on business market..their influence though is less then before
People did not complain when Win7 came out they complained when Vista came out..and windows 2000 was not that great..microsoft was always in the server market with Windows NT being first. The time that Microsoft got progress in the server market is Windows 2003 (I use these and CentOS for my servers myself)

1. there are 7 million in sales of wm in the us with iphone reaching 8 million (considering apple sells an average of 10 mil that's real bad numbers outside the us)
2. ms holds info for 1-3 years while google holds it for 7 years actively and then archives it without ever purging your info. in case you did not know, google is the ONLY company that does that. plus google feeds all your info to spammers which no one else does.
3. tp2 hardware is extremely close to the best out there before snapdragon came out and the only reason wm is sluggish is because of the plugins like tf3d and sense.
4. microsoft has always been business oriented and now they are going consumer as well as business with windows phone 7. MS has never concentrated on kids whn it came to portable devices, example would be the zune. how many ads do you see on the zune (even though it's better hardware than ipod)? or for wm?
5. people complained about vista is because hardware/software developers/manufacturers screwed ms. linksys refused to pay ms licensing for 64bit and made ms look bad in wireless aspect (one example). the ball started rolling because people were installing vista on 2002 pcs and thought all should be ok, but when they went to download drivers, the manufacturers didn't provide them and caused hate towards ms instead of manufacturers. windows 7 is based on vista with just a few tweaks to make the gui somewhat different and quicker with a few tricks. in case you were thinking then why did ms get windows 7 out so quickly, they actually didn't, 2-3 years is normal life span for ms OS's and only xp was the exception to that rule.
google will never enter my household because of their shady business practices, even the feds are after them for scanning books into it's database from librarys.
