    Cause then they will be worth more money. And then they can sell for a higher price. To Dell. I think Dell should buy Facebook. And Microsoft.

    Yup, they spend 13 billion dollars a year on research to find a better and faster way to create more security issues.

    Personally, I think it’s farfetched that Microsoft wouldn’t pay roughly $52 billion for Yahoo (the company’s asking price when Microsoft withdrew its offer), a company with more than $7 billion in annual revenue, but would pay up to $20 billion for Facebook, a company on track for a reported $300-350 million in sales this year. Scoble has an elaborate theory about why it would make sense, but I still can’t see how those numbers add up to anything logical in any scenario.

    Microsoft also has to meet the challenge of Google Chrome OS and the Chromebook.
    But actually i think that it would not happen

    I don't think so. Facebook is a well established and developed site. so,there is no possibility to happen this.
