Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
You guys are confused. MicroGoogle bought AppleSoft. Both are now divisions of AOL / Time Warner. And all is right with the world.
Now I'm flashing memories to the brief segment in
Friday
- the Heinlien novel, not any of the millions of other possible
Fridays
- where Friday is researching the Shipstone corporation and realizes that they secretly (publicly, but not obviously) own pretty much the entire world. I distinctly remember that they owned both Pepsi and Coke, for example.

Ha. LIKE the Mormons would let that happen.
And I could've sworn that MicroGoogle bought AOL/TimeWarner and Disney, and is going to be renamed McGoogle.

Which is why you can get the red M&Ms again (they're the ones that are an aphrodesiac (you need at least five)).
No, it's the GREEN ones. Kids today, yeesh.
Actually I wasn't being facetious. Remember when Steve Jobs announced that Microsoft had bought a controlling amount of shares in Apple? They recreated the famous 1984 TV ad, except it was Bill Gates' face on the screen, telling everybody that Microsoft would make sure Apple succeeded?
Let me Google...

I'm pretty sure it wasn't a controlling interest.
