Windows and Office are MS’s cash cows and have been forever. Those are safe.
They’re probably not going to win this new market and neither will Apple or HP. Android is going to walk away with this one and it’s a *big* market coming up.

Android is going to walk away with this one and its a *big* market coming up.
Android is too fragmented, and it lacks the professional apps to really make a go at it.
Once Nokia gets going with WM7, the marketplace will have been redefined again, and Android with become just another player, in second or third place as far as smartphone OSes, and even as a tablet OS, plus, Google has turned out to be not too trustworthy with people's data, and people are becoming too leery about the spy network.
I'm pretty sure that Google and Apple are paying close attention to WM7 and the upcoming Windows 8, and are beginning to worry about what Microsoft has up its sleeves. WM7 may be the newest and the underdog, but, we're still talking about Microsoft, and if anyone rules them out this early, it could be at their own peril.
