yup sony should buy apple

It's simple, because they can't.

Sony doesn't have the money to buy apple. The title of this thread would have made sense if you put " If MS bought apple" or "if apple bought sony".

Yeah I agree apple wouldnt take tge offer but Sony has the money

Sony makes more money then apple so they can

No they can't, financially crippling your company and selling off assets just to buy something means they can't afford it. It's because of this way of thinking that so many people are up to their eyeballs in debt.

"If MS bought apple" If you cant beat em buy them?...jkz

For Sony to buy Apple, somebody would have to SELL Apple.

you could also look at apple market cap .  http://gizmodo.com/5501165/how-ginormous-is-apple-now  on march 24th before the ipad launch in was 207 billion. just a hair below walmarts and about 50 billion behind MS, and less then a hundred from exxon mobile which i believe is the largest on market right now.

40+ billion in cash, and debt free, the could buy sony lock stock and barrel if they went all out. the easiest way would be buy sonys debt and refuse to renegotiate it, sony has a lot of debt, and the lenders have been fairly friendly to them, apple could dismantle sony a piece at a time with its debt. sony options would be limited unless the Japanese government stepped in and helped them. 

however this is all hypathetical i doubt it would help apple to do any of this sony has nothing apple really wants, and corprate philosophies are very different 

Shhhhhh, they'll hear you!
