For a happy person delightfully concentrated in Apple, I wanted to show Apple’s performance versus Microsoft and Cisco in decades 1(1990-2000) and 2 (2000-2012). I thought this would give me a good chance to try out the very interesting work being done at https://github.com/jrnold/ggthemes.

For another chart since 2003 prepared by the far more capable at the Wall Street Journal, see Why Microsoft Beats Apple hat tip from Stock Picking Matters: Apple v Microsoft from The Big Picture by Global Macro Monitor with a hat tip from Jason Zweig.
My best guess in terms of the debate is some other company will resoundingly beat both Microsoft and Apple over the next decade.
