"Too Big To Fail"
Nothing is too big to fail. It just takes longer. Have we forgotten the GFC? Fanny May? Freddie Mac? The bigger they are the harder they fall. Currently in Europe there are countries about to default on loan payments. Something that has not happened before. Economically we are better off with smaller busnesses. That way not all your eggs are in one basket, companies can bond together to raise capital for a project. If one fails they won't bring everything down with it.
Life without MS would be no different today. The sun will still come up. Perhaps MS has stifled developement and creativity by being so large. In any corporation the decisions come down to just one person, the CEO.
