I was particularly surprised that Microsoft accepted Bitcoin this early compared to Google or Apple.
I'm sure Google is contemplating ways to implement or incorporate, but MS jumping into the fray this fast is good on them.
Apple on the other hand has made their own bed with Apple Pay, which they'll probably promote market aggressively to it's sheeple followers until Bitcoin does make a mainstream splash. Only then, once it's available and easily implemented into Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Amazon's etc interface will Apple eventually jump on the bandwagon.
MS incorporating it is a good start.

This was indeed a very bold move from Microsoft! I'm looking forward to other tech giants following their lead.
