By now, it is no secret that Google annually pays Apple billions to keep its search engine as the default one for a multitude of devices. Unfortunately, that deal could go up in smoke, as Judge Amit Mehta has ruled that the advertising giant is a monopolist that deliberately stifles competition, which includes Microsoft’s Bing. However, the monetary deal between the technology giants appears to be a symbiotic relationship, as an Apple executive said that there is no meaningful alternative to Google’s search engine. He also commented on Microsoft, stating that the entire company could be sold to the iPhone […]
Apple struggled to keep pace with the competition in the mid-1990s, leading to the company absorbing monumental financial blows and facing the jaws of potential bankruptcy. By 1997, the California-based firm witnessed a mammoth loss of $1 billion as it failed to have any meaningful reply to Microsoft and IBM. Apple attempted to turn things around, but the launch of its handheld Newton failed to garner sufficient reception, not to mention that its System 7 OS was outdated compared to Windows 95. In short, the technology firm’s executives were probably mulling looking at lucrative positions elsewhere, but in came Microsoft, […]

With losses mounting to the tune of around half a billion dollars, the U.S. airlines’ CEO Ed Bastian had no sympathy for Microsoft when he harshly criticized the software giant for the outage while also praising Apple when drawing up a comparison. Chief Executive also says that Microsoft is the ‘most fragile platform’ when asked about a future business relationship In an interview with […]
In recent weeks, King employees have swapped their LinkedIn information, saying they are now working in Blizzard. This comes in conjunction with Microsoft and Activision's new team, which has been created within Blizzard. This team takes employees from King and other various Blizzard employees and is now a focused team dedicated to working on Blizzard's "AA" games, such as World of Warcraft, Overwatch, StarCraft, and more. The expansion doesn't come as much of a surprise, as Microsoft acquired Activision Blizzard last year for a hefty $72 billion. This gave Microsoft leverage over some of its major franchises, such as Call […]
