I don't get it?


I don't get it? You're the one who says that a 58% increase in profits is a decline. You obviously know nothing about business (or English, for that matter).

Considering the billions of dollars that Google has made from ad revenue I'd say they have a pretty amazing understanding of revenue generation compared to Microsoft who is essentially resting on their laurels. Microsoft has only recently hit their second wind of innovation because their reputation alone wasn't driving up their sales. It's not a sprint in the advertising market, it's a marathon and Google has a huge head start.

PS- I really do like Microsoft, I just refuse to hail them as geniuses for jumping into the now-profitable advertising market years after the real innovation of it.
