this is the worst comment for so many reasons
If you were just trying to be funny, then my apologies.
finally, i think it is not possible to make a very good argument that nokia was not a direct competitor of microsoft.
peace
In what market are Microsoft and Nokia direct competitors?
They had a partnership with Nokia for Symbian (Microsoft was developing Silverlight and allegedly a version of Office, although I don't know if either really existed).
Nokia's competitors are hardware phone manufacturers, which Microsoft isn't.
You might argue that they are "indirect competitors" because Microsoft makes a smartphone operating system, and Nokia uses smartphone operating systems made by someone besides Microsoft. This ignores the fact that Microsoft's customers are phone makers, and Nokia's customers are consumers.
Nokia makes business phones
