Sun Microsystems.
Now that Xsan is mature and the Xserve has both dual power supplies and lights out Solaris on VMs could dwarf the business they currently do – absolutely dwarf. There are tons of Enterprise deploys that are stuck in Solaris and cannot migrate… why not just stick them in a VM?

Buying AMD will be excellent decision.

A-A-A ( Apple-AMD-ATI ) will make a great synergy…I think Steve Jobs know this.

BUY ADOBE! Photoshop, all the CS3, Flash (knock Silvercloud or Silverfish or whatever MS’s flash-competitor is in the dirt), integrate best parts of movie apps into Apple movie apps. Still make a Windoze version of some apps (there’s a lot of money in there), but have control…THEN build ability to run Windoze apps without Windoze into OS X. There’d be no more good media apps left to run on Windoze, so the whole “can’t let Windoze apps run natively on OS X because no one will develop for OS X” argument gets diluted significantly.

Oh, and buy Bungie…..

I also think Adobe would be a good idea ….and I like Ikea’s designs. I think a lot of people do.
