    Facebook is going IPO next week. Why on earth people are talking about a sale? Moreover to Microsoft? FYI, Microsoft already owns 2.47% of facebook.

    Ohh! This is DP. Critical questions pops up here. I forgot. Now I have question in mind...Do you think Bing will overtake Google? :p Someone care to answer that please.

    I don't think so this will happen. It will never happen. I think Microsoft is happy being a part owner of Facebook.

    Then maybe Yahoo should buy Bing. Google buy Windows and the server division. And Facebook buy Office. That would leave Microsoft with XBox.

    Hi everyone !!



    Microsoft has enough money, trust me, but Mark is a very intelligent man and I dont think he'd accept. I prefers to transcend as a leader as Jobs did.
    Yahoo buying Microsoft is completely crazy, It's the other way XD. Microsoft is not dead, is still winning a lot.


    Cheers!

    Microsoft does NOT have enough money and I don't trust you.
    So you are close enough to call him Mark?
    It's out of his hands now. He has no say.
    Then Apple should buy Microsoft. Apple has more cash than Microsoft has.

    Do you not know the owner, Bill Gates, is the richest man in the world? Maybe the second richest by now BUT you are wrong if you think microsoft can't afford anything...

    Doesn't matter. Neither Microsoft, nor Bill Gates can afford to buy Facebook. Especially after this week when Facebook's IPO comes out.

    maybe they wouldn't but they CAN afford it if they wanted too. Dude has over 50 billion, I don't think FB is worth that much.

    Facebook is valued at $75-$100 billion. Microsoft doesn't have that much cash, about $50Billion. Neither does Gates. No company would spend all their reserves on one company anyway.
