NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Microsoft's dominance as the tech industry's most valuable player has ended.
On Wednesday, Apple's market capitalization edged past its longtime rival's as investors made official what consumers have long suggested: Microsoft is no longer the industry's alpha dog.
Just last month, Microsoft's market cap exceeded Apple's by about $25 billion, but now Apple is in the lead by nearly $3 billion.. .
Yeah, this news just breaks my heart! :biggrin:
I like that. Old Bill, I read a small Bio on him. He started his company with a great big lie to IBM and taking advantage of some of his geek friends he started Microsoft.
Just goes to show you don't have to tell the truth to become the riches man in the world. I wonder if he every made it right with the man who developed the program he started with and practically stole it from him.
