As for MS, Ballmer laid that foundation. Nadella is capitalizing, but MS is mostly capitalizing on it's position and not so much offering a ground breaking direction.

This is a trope that is just not true. Ballmer's vision was a reinvigoration of Windows. The Hololens. The Phone 2.0.

Satya's is about openness and meeting developers and customers where they are. This is what has value and what Wall Street is excited about.
