5-year performance, adjusted for splits.

9/12/2005:
AAPL $51.41
MSFT $26.07

9/7/2010:
AAPL $263.41
MSFT $23.85

Now MSFT is getting ready to spend up to $500 million dollars (1/2 billion) to push their new phone.

If they would actually, you know... INNOVATE something instead of coming in a day late and a dollar short and always trying to play catch-up, they could start to imitate Apple's stock price, too.
