Horrible, out of date list. You picked a time in the middle of last summer which is why it has all those oil companies. Toyota is in the list at that time and probably had been bigger than MS since about 2006 but it is not today, it was not during the 90s and a lot of the first half of 2000. It picked up in the later half of the 2000s as the Japanese economy started to pickup but it is back down to about 2/3 the size of MS today.

Now.. there are oil companies, car companies, insurance comapnies, retail, PC hardware, banking, communications.. microsoft ranks in at 35, thats only including the US, So I'd expect its ranking to be a lot lower in the global chart. It is most definitely one of the most profitable corps out there, ranked at 3.
oh, and its the 2009 list. :)
Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.
