The insane part about all of this is that Microsoft still has over $80 Billion in the bank in cash and short term investments.
To put that in perspective... That's more money on hand than a majority of governments in the world.

Wonder what they intend to do with all that cash?

Funny you say that. Apparently that's more money than the US had in the bank at some point in 2011.

As for the cash, keep it. Contrary to popular believe many think that this economic crisis is not over, it's just taking a deep breath.

What's the point of keeping it when they could earn interest on it?
