Both Nokia and MS are irrelevant in the market right now and nothing shows this will change exept a few posts on nokia and s sites. Nokia might have patents but have a lot of problems too. MS can't have another failed OS. If they enter a fight against google MS has more to lose since android is already established but if in the war with google win 8 gets hit by on of the 17000 motorola patents then it's game over for the 2 lovers(MS, Nokia) And I agree that people are stupid, but in this fight that is against MS because stupid users remember that they messed up their PCs and Laptops that had windows on them and they do not want to have that experience on their phones. The name windows is bad publicity for the win phones which will once again fail but will provide us with a good laugh.
