Apple, Google and Microsoft’s
        Size Problem




       Adam Richardson, Creative Director
                August 18, 2009
Google, Microsoft and Apple are all facing a
 potentially game-changing disruption to their
businesses. What lessons can we learn from how
               they are facing it?

                              © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary.   2
Chrome OS          Vista                              Mac OS X
  Android       Windows Mobile                        iPhone OS




Google, Microsoft and Apple all make two OS’s:
  one geared for full-size PCs, one for small
            smartphones/PDAs.


                                 © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary.   3
The possible disruption is caused by the rapid rise
of popularity of Netbooks that sit in size between
           smartphones and laptops.


                                  © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary.   4
The usage models for laptops and smartphones
 are more or less established, and the OS’s that
  drive these products are tuned to the usage
models (variety of applications, duration of use,
        interaction types, connectivity...)
                                 © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary.   5
But how people will use this middle-size device is
unclear. That means its technical specs, desirable
   applications, and OS type are also unclear.


                                 © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary.   6
What should the OS makers do?
Scale up from a smartphone OS, or scale down
                from a PC OS?

               Android    Windows Mobile                     iPhone OS




 Each company is taking a di erent approach.

                 Android    Windows Mobile                     iPhone OS


 With Chrome OS, Google is playing it from both ends by
 overlapping it with Android for Netbook-sized devices:
This may cause confusion for developers: which platform
                  should they invest in?

                Android    Windows Mobile                     iPhone OS


Neither of Microsoft’s current OS’s work for Netbooks.
Windows 7 is intended to be more cross-platform, with
di erent versions covering laptop to Netbook, leaving
      Windows Mobile for smartphones/PDAs.

                 Android    Windows Mobile                     iPhone OS




   Apple also has two clear OS options that lie at the
     extremes of device size and usage models.

                 Android    Windows Mobile                     iPhone OS




 Apple wants to avoid Netbooks. With renewed rumors
about a Tablet, the question is which OS Apple might use
 for it? And would it work more like a Mac or an iPhone?

  • 3. Chrome OS Vista Mac OS X Android Windows Mobile iPhone OS Google, Microsoft and Apple all make two OS’s: one geared for full-size PCs, one for small smartphones/PDAs. © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary. 3
  • 4. The possible disruption is caused by the rapid rise of popularity of Netbooks that sit in size between smartphones and laptops. © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary. 4
  • 5. The usage models for laptops and smartphones are more or less established, and the OS’s that drive these products are tuned to the usage models (variety of applications, duration of use, interaction types, connectivity...) © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary. 5
  • 6. But how people will use this middle-size device is unclear. That means its technical specs, desirable applications, and OS type are also unclear. © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary. 6

  • 12. Chrome OS Vista Mac OS X LARGER Desktop Laptop Tablet Netbook Smartphone SMALLER Android Windows Mobile iPhone OS Apple wants to avoid Netbooks. With renewed rumors about a Tablet, the question is which OS Apple might use for it? And would it work more like a Mac or an iPhone? © 2009 frog design. confidential & proprietary. 12
