Spending on the effort will likely be about $300 million, per sources.

Two other shops, WPP Group’s JWT and Interpublic Group’s McCann Erickson, both here, were cut in an earlier round.

The winning agency will develop a global campaign defining Microsoft to consumers in the context of its mobile, Vista and Live platforms.
