11 years ago, when Apple was starting to turn around from its down days, Michael Dell made the comment when asked what he would do with Apple: 

Today, Apple has more money in its bank account than Dell is worth as a company.  They could buy Dell at its value, and still have a billion or so left to throw around.

Good times.  I wonder how he feels about Apple now?  What I do know, is that I don't think he would be the first person that I would take investment advice from.

Now... Micorosoft has changed tact, and started a set of attack ads to say "I am a PC."  All I have to say, is: they are good.  Microsoft finally figured it out.  They show real people all over the world, using PCs in their lives.  Its just too bad that the commercials and advertisements themselves were made on Macs.  

The real question from these well designed ads is: Will it work?  I would venture to say no.  Microsoft is trying to play the victim card.  It is the largest company in the world, and it is trying to remind the world that people still use PCs.  The ads do not attempt to show why people should stay with Microsoft, or why they think their product is better.  These ads just tell the world that lots of people use PCs.  

Another fun thing to think about, is how scared Microsoft must be right now.  Thats a good sign for Apple me thinks.
