Buy your way to success

On one hand I feel bad for the employees of MSN/Live who basically got a slap in the face today from their leadership - it's pretty clear that the execs are tired of losing. On the other hand, I'm pretty surprised to see MS get over the NIH syndrome that plagues all innovation driven companies - kudos to calling the emperor naked.

$44B = $20B MS has in cash/ST investments + 1.5 quarters of cash flow ($15B)

MS is just a cash printing machine... they should just buy Oracle next....
