You do not realize that this $60 Billion is paper-money only, there is hardly any cash. All this money is
stuck in other people's projects. It will probably take them 10 - 20 years to be able to cash all their assets if they can at all.
Please check your figures before you post. According to Microsoft's 8-K filed 23 April 2004, as of 31 March 2004, they had $9.348 billion in cash and cash equivalents, and an additional $47.059 billion in
short-term investments. (See
FreeEdgar for the 8-K and other reports.)
