SFGate.com: Tech titans ready to brawl Google, Microsoft look to square off on Net and desktop

A must read article, if you are interested in the "Microsoft muscling for search - Google gunning for software" topic!

Microsoft is doing everything they can to gain share in the search market, but are far from succeeding yet. I don't think that positive change, will happen before the launch their new operating system Vista. And since that is 1-2 years into the future, it might be to late to stop Google from gaining sufficient momentum to potentially dominate software served online.

Google really has the advantage of surprise and momentum. Yahoo! was surprised when Google ventured beyond search. Microsoft was still just waking up at this time - unfortunately for them to a nightmare called Google.
