MS was successful on desktop but failed on mobile, so MS is adapting their desktop OS for mobile devices.
For Apple, its the other way around. Apple was successful on mobile, but failed on taking over the desktop. So they are adapting their mobile OS for the desktop.
Their end-game is the same: to create a larger ecosystem via universal apps that work in both mobile and desktop.
The funny thing is perception. Apple's moves are viewed negatively but MS moves are viewed positively (at least here on HN).
