Impossible!!!!

There is no way that the Disney shareholders and/or board would ever sell the company to a company like Google. There are so many business units within Disney that go way beyond the expertise of Google's managment. Google has a ton of cash but will probably continue to find acquisitions that will make them the dominate INTERNET player in that space. Can't see them in film, theme parks, merchandising, television, etc.

With the kind of money these guys throw around I wouldn't mind seeing Google buy Universal Studios some day however. Maybe they'd finally build a new attraction in IOA.

Thanks Pacochran...It seemed like a strech for Google to buy Disney. I'd also like to believe everything that Disney owns the pricetag would be a little higher than $1.6 billion.
I just thought this was a joke in some way.
Thanks again!

This reminds me of a good one I saw recently. Keep in mind that I am a Microsoft SQL Server DBA, developer, and Systems administrator:

Recently one of my friends, a computer wizard, paid me a visit. As we were talking I mentioned that I had recently installed Windows on my PC, I told him how happy I was with this operating system and showed him the Windows CD. Too my astonishment and distress he threw it into my micro-wave oven and turned it on. I was upset because the CD had become precious to me, but he said: 'Do not worry, it is unharmed.' After a few minutes he took the CD out, gave it to me and said: 'Take a close look at it.' To my surprise the CD was quite cold and it seemed to have become thicker and heavier than before. At first I could not see anything, but on the inner edge of the central hole I saw an inscription, in lines finer than anything I have ever seen before. The inscription shone piercingly bright, and yet remote, as if out of a great depth:

'No,' he said, 'but I can. The letters are Hex, of an ancient mode, but the language is that of Microsoft, which I shall not utter here. But in common English this is what it says:'
One OS to rule them all, One OS to find them,​

One OS to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.​

Gotta love that geek humor....​
