There was some fluffernut on the internet yesterday , over at BGR , that said Apple may be concerned in buying Barnes & Noble . Which they wo n’t , any more than you ’ll bribe your neighbor ’s Chrysler Sebring . Technologizer saves uswith some perspective .

Just how many company has Apple been rumored to buy over the class , and how many have they actually acquired ? Well , lots and few , certain . But the order of magnitude of the plenty are also worth a chuckle : Universal Music . Nintendo . Adobe . Yahoo . And many , many more , 14 in all deserving highlight .

It ’s well deserving a read if you ever find yourself too giddy or appalled at the candidate of a big Apple purchase — aswe all are from time to time . [ Technologizer ]
