MacRulesWorld Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 What would you do if Steve Jobs dies suddenly and Microsoft buys Apple what would be the first thing you would do. Not trying to be a pessimist just consider because Jobs has cancer. What If? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/88463-what-if/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabotron Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Lol... Why wouldn't they? If the decison makers see a big $$$ opportunity, at the expense of being ruled by Microsoft, they wont hesitate, business always worked that way in america. Those people are humans, too. Even though some of you seem not to be aware of that, or juste like to believe they are not.

rob356 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Microsoft cannot buy Apple, then they would be accused of having a monopoly. and even as a precaution to prevent that when Apple wasn't doing too well they invested a couple million in Apple. So Microsoft DOES own part of Apple *gasp* Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/88463-what-if/#findComment-631713 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabotron Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 That is true. However, I find silly to believe that some business mans would spit on profits just for the sake of preserving the uniqueness of a brand. While I actually wish it'd work that way, it does not.
