Yes you have read it right, COMBINED!!! At the end of the day when markets closed on Friday, Apple’s market value was actually more than Microsoft and Intel combined.
As per the stats, Microsoft and Intel together were at $316.8 million whereas Apple was just above at $317.6 million. This is the first time when Apple has overtaken both. Well with the WWDC coming up in a few hours this must sound like music to Steve Jobs and the Mac lovers…
MacDailyNews pulled this quote from the pages of history to celebrate and rub it in for Wintel by publishing the following quote:
What I can’t figure out is why he [Steve Jobs] is even trying [to be the CEO of Apple]? He knows he can’t win. – Bill Gates, June 1998
