Best Answer

As long as apple continues to be available only for mac computers, offering only one choice of hardware, Microsoft Windows will be the obvious choice for anyone who does not want a mac, and is probably the reason why apple today only own about 8% of the OS market vs Microsoft at 73%. The only reason why apple is worth more than Microsoft is because most of their revenue come from ipads, iphones, ipods, and a range of other i products in contrast to Microsoft as a pure software company.

Why does Microsoft take things from Apple?

Today Microsoft produces a range of software for Apple's Macintosh computers and Apple produces software for computers running Microsoft's Windows operating system. There has been a friendly rivalry between the two companies for many years. In their early days Microsoft was employed by Apple to produce software for them. This relationship evolved and Microsoft licensed some aspects of the Macintosh operating system from Apple to use in their own version which they called Windows. Microsoft started using more of Apple's ideas than they had been allowed to by the licensing deal and they also "acquired" some of the QuickTime programming code which they used in their own media player. This resulted in a long running legal dispute between the two companies. In general Microsoft has taken more from Apple than Apple has taken from Microsoft.
