New page in IT history has come recently. Microsoft vs Apple market share becomes a new force in second part of 2012. Steve Ballmer from Microsoft declares a war to Cupertino company. To continue the topic about the most dangerous Apple rivals let's talk about Microsoft vs Apple market share 2012 and its predictions from Steve Ballmer. Microsoft is entering a new phase in its development. This was the key idea of ​​Steve Ballmer during his speech at the Worldwide Partner Conference, which has took place these days in Toronto. Ballmer said that the move would lead to the rejuvenation of the company with its new product - Microsoft Surface. Remember Bill Gates' talks about iPad. Also, Steve did not rule out the possibility to mention about smartphone from Microsoft, which may be a symbol of a new stage in Apple vs Microsoft market share history.

We are trying to make absolutely clear we are not going to leave any space uncovered to Apple. We are not. No space uncovered that is Apple’s.

Ballmer told this Monday. He also called productivity, enterprise management, and greater agility benefits in Microsoft vs Apple market share in which the company will achieve success. Steve held a speech in a familiar manner. Full of emotion, he is literally screaming said he would not allow Apple to lead alone or in the cloud, either in software or in hardware.

But we are not going to let any piece of this [go uncontested to Apple]. Not the consumer cloud. Not hardware software innovation. We are not leaving any of that to Apple by itself. Not going to happen. Not on our watch.

Interestingly, is this conclusion arrived at Microsoft after the appearance of its own tablet? It is unclear just why Microsoft took this much time. And, of course, not surprising that this awareness has led to the idea of ​​creating its own smartphone. Steve Ballmer said that Microsoft had big plans for the expand of Surface, which he titled the tablet as a core of the company. Steve believes in its current key partners - Nokia, which I'm pretty sure Nokia will work with Microsoft to build its own smartphone. And it is not strange after 4FF Nano-Sim agreement between Apple and Rim with Motorola. 2012 in Microsoft vs Apple market share sales is a very important year, because many users are waiting for the October release of Windows 8, which should show the advantage over the Mac OS X. Personally, I am sincerely glad of such a strong spirit in the company, however, believe the grand speeches is just chatterbox by Steve Ballmer and the winner has already existed. How do you think? Who will win in Apple vs Microsoft market share 2012?
