Hi,
Such a company cannot offer its stocks to be bought such that it's controlled by another company, the controlling is for the owners of MSFT.
The last time I checked, Microsoft itself, and Gates and Ballmer added together with the rest of the Board own less than 15% of the stock. http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ks?s=MSFT Most is held by Institutions (large commercial investors and government agencies who need to park money somewhere till its needed). The chances of this plan succeeding are diddly squat! -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
