Because you don't make money on making one, you make money on how it alters the view on how people see the Internet.

Under Microsoft, the Internet was made janky enough to encourage more than the basic web use require third party plug-ins that didn't always work or a computer program running in Windows.

Under Google, the Internet is more standardized across platforms, but Google can shape how the Internet works for it's own profit.
