The big fight is going to be over the Asian market. From what I could
gather, Google's 'theft' of the top Microsoft executive (whose roots are in
Asia) gives a possibility of boosting usage in counties whose user count
makes America and Europe only moderate factors.
Windows has been a part of this struggle too. Some suggest that Microsoft
intentionally turn a blind eye on Chinese Windows/Office piracy. But it
takes us off topic...
