The competition between Microsoft and Apple is as healthy as it has ever been with both companies readying their latest operating systems: Microsoft's Longhorn and Apple's Tiger.
A recent article at Microsoft Watch provides coverage on Steve Jobs' claims of copying and provides a feature by feature comparison of Apple's 'point release' release of Mac OS X and Microsoft's 'bet the company' release of Windows.
While a comparison between the two might not be warranted it is interesting food for thought. Have a read of Robert Scoble's opinion on the copying claims and Mary Jo Foley's article on Microsoft Watch to get the latest on the Longhorn and Tiger.
Do you think that Apple's Tiger can hunt down Microsoft's Longhorn? Is Tiger the best challenge to the Windows franchise since the days of Windows 3? And with the ever growing threat of desktop Linux, do you think that Tiger is Longhorn's biggest competitor?
