Apple passes Microsoft to be biggest tech company

Bit irrelevant as I think the world can live without Apple but won't be able to live without Microsoft, not like either is going anywhere soon anyhow. Anyway this latest wonder news is based on share price value M$'s fell (down to $219Bn) and Apples (rose to $222Bn) that should please the iTards. I don't like M$ or Apple before the fanbois throw that out there, Apple because its all very well repacking products in a shiny case and flogging it to the hordes who like to pay too much for stuff, Apple are seemingly masters at marketting and timing,  and I don't like Microsoft for too many reasons :p

Google Images FTW!111!11!:

"Apple has pushed past arch-rival Microsoft to become the world's biggest technology company.Changes in the share price values of the two in Wednesday's choppy trading left the total value of Apple at $222bn (£154bn).Microsoft is now valued by investors at $219bn.However, Microsoft still enjoys higher profits than Apple. Its most recent annual net profit was $14.6bn (£10bn), compared with $5.7bn for Apple."
