Microsoft's Keyser Söze Opportunity

Por um escritor misterioso

quot;The greatest trick Microsoft ever pulled was convincing Apple that Google didn't exist." If Microsoft plays its cards right, that may be a statement we're saying years from now. What does that mean? Aside from being a riff on one of the best lines in movie history, what I mean by that is: imagine if Microsoft was able to convince Apple to make Bing the default search engine on the iPhone, rather than Google. Leading up to Apple's press event last month, rumors were swirling about this possibility. As is always the case with Apple, it's hard to know how legitimate those talks were or if they were just some ploy to get something else it wanted. But from Microsoft's perspective, it should be more than wishful thinking.
