Today's battle features not only two of the biggest companies in the world but neighbors that practically live in each other's Seattle-area backyard. #Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and #Amazon .com (NASDAQ:AMZN) have combined to produce an enormous wave of innovation over the last 25 years. That's had profound effects on just about everyone, including shareholders. Microsoft stock has returned 53,000% since going public in 1986, and Amazon stock has generated 39,000% growth since its debut in 1997. Those are compounded growth rates of 23% and 37% per year, respectively. While I think it's prudent to assume that type of growth might not be the norm moving forward, both companies remain compelling buys. But which is better? Below, I'll try to evaluate them based on three key criteria.
