    I'm no financial guy and don't know the numbers involved, but do you think it could happen?

    BTW, this is just something I thought about, and not something I actually heard!

    No, that is not going to happen. Big brother would block it.

    No way it'll happen.

    1. I don't think Google can afford Microsoft.
    2. It'll create a monopoly.

    nah, it is possible for ms to buy google though in financial terms but I doubt it will go through with google shareholders.

    Definitely not. There's no point in doing that anyway.

    If anyone is going to buy Microsoft it will be Norton. They can't deal with stuffing up individual PC systems...why not stuff up the whole Internet??? :D
