Hi Martin:

No it is not, it is just that the market has changed and now there are many players all vying the expanding market. 

Microsoft is not going away but its domination of the market is...it is becoming just another player. I am more concerned with Google's new growth...one billion users and growing. I believe the market is best when there are many options and no one with a clear advantage...like now for example.
