Until 1999 (or when ever the justice department took MS to court) 
Microsoft was the "largest valued company in the world" during the 
trial Cisco over took them, as for now I have no idea who is at the 
top.

Anyway I doubt even someone as large as WALLMART could afford to buy 
MS. The world economy and corporate debt problems aside, the same 
goes for AOL/TIME WARNER and other large companies. But feel free to 
out me right as I ouot of touch with such tends at the moment.
