why would a succesful company like Apple want a cash bleeder like Sony in thsi economic climate?

 

Exactly. I see no chance in hell of them even concidering this. They would have to spend so much money fixing the bleeding of Sony, and it would take years. They can easily just keep creating their own products, without buying Sony, and they will do just fine.

 

Apple's name is established, and has a better public perception than does Sony's, according to those brand ratings they do every year.
