A bit of a side-note, but calling something an "equivalent" in this kind of circumstance is a bit of a misnomer, I think. "Competitor", sure. But "equivalent" implies some sort of interchangeability to me.
- sliverstorm 13y agoAre they interchangeable in casual conversation?
- timdiggerm 13y agoWhat do you mean by "interchangeability"? Do they not want Cortana do all the things Siri does?
- tomkarlo 13y agoThey want it to, but unless it does today, it's not an "equivalent" yet. It's splitting hairs but the choice of that word implies they're equal in a way that "Microsoft's answer to Siri" or "alternative to Siri" does not. It's an implicit assessment of its relative capability.
