Keep in mind... in a takeover you have to offer more then the current share price by quite a bit usually. Not to mention Sony would likely insitute a "poison pill" option.

Oh yeah forgot that :(
But AMD also isnt doing well right now ... there are rumors for AMD to be sold ... maybe that would be a better investment for ms
But buying shares for sony right now would be not a wise idea and the chances that you will make profit in the near future is slim.

There are different rumors about MS buying someone big every day. The most likely ones are Nokia and Nvidia. Well after Skype last year with 7 billion USD, Sony is easily possible, but it won't happen, because Sony will do everything they can to protect their company and MS won't buy a Japanese company (IMO)

Your right that this is pure MS fan dreams, but MS needs Japan appeal more then anybody

Buying Sony would likely be the opposite of that... it'd probably actually hurt MS in Japan. Though it's rapidly changing, there is still quite a bit of nationalism in Japanese consumer behavior.
They want products made by japanese countries made in Japan. Made by an American company, that has it's manufacturing in japan.... probably would be seen as a negative.
Korean products are breaking into the market due to price... and Apple products due to... being apple, but as a whole. It's still a very nationalized and "Patriotic" market.
