About gaming, I don't think that's a priority anymore.

Dayz/Leaque of Legends...... Microsoft is building up their community games and Minecraft is one of the most popular games on stuff like Twitch and Twitch/youtube players have a huge impact on sales and popularity of games... EA went out and reprinted Skate 3 copies thanks to PewDiePie's video of the game...

Also the hints of Steam working on something with MS ..Also the hints of MS trying to let people play games in the browser is interesting and could mean something...

Atari will buy Microsoft....lol

This year they bought companies that not many have heard of:
InMage, Disaster recovery solutions.
SyntaxTree, Developer tools.
Capptain, (Mobile) application development.
GreenButton, Cloud computing.
Parature, Customer service software.
Apiphany, API management.
HLW Software, RDP application.

If there is a pattern it is not for me to see.
