> Microsoft is a relative underdog now

How so? According to NASDAQ, MSFT is valued higher than all of the FAANG companies. It's north of $900B right now.

If that's what people believe, it's brilliant! Part of the strategy of Apple's resurrection was making people think they were the little guy; the hip, cool alternative for people who "think different." Now Microsoft can play the same game.

As of right now, MSFT market cap is $895B and AAPL is $888B. Some underdog!
