At roughly similar points in their lives, Microsoft and Google initiated video gaming platforms. Microsoft stuck with Xbox through seven years (iirc) of still-unprofitable growth to what it is today. Google abandoned Stadia after three years.

Yeah, I think Google is looking more like an IBM in the long run, while Microsoft manages to innovate despite its age and size.
