Lol is this a complete joke. MS has gotten turned down for acquisition deals with Nintendo and Yahoo. They literally pulled all cash and equity that they had and that still wasn't enough to buy either of them. We're talking about $50 billion offers each time. And this was when Nintendo was at their worst (after the n64 and before the DS came out). With Yahoo it was in the midst of financial turmoil and executives getting fired. But both companies flatly refused each time.
MS just doesn't have the cash or equity anymore to buyout big companies. Valve would be no different.
