I don't care about their networth I care about mine and on that statistic Apple made me rich when I retire and MS hasn't.

Also, where are you getting your statistics on how much Gates owns and is worth compared to how much Apple is worth in a whole market value? I'd like to know as I believe most of Gates assets are liquidated and I am pretty sure he bought stock in Apple as well LOL.

And on your comment of "So you're one of those people who think that because a share is worth more than it's a better company?"

Yes, they are the better company for now as their innovation and ability to pursue outside a stale market has made them a more recognizable company in today's market. Who's to say MS moves back on top of them in the future? For now it isn't looking so good.


By the way here's a good site for market capitalization:

"At press time, Google gained 1.31%, market capitalization of $ 178.7 billion, Microsoft rose 0.33%, market capitalization of $ 230.2 billion, market value of the sum of the two companies $ 408.9 billion. Apple market value of $ 390.9 billion, close to the two giants Google and Microsoft, the market value of the sum."
