    To which Cisco replied “okay” and forced Apple to agree to an unknown but likely ludicrous licensing fee.

      Twitter’s got so little money that they can’t even pay all their bills, lol.

      Honestly I think they rolled out the new branding without finishing it because they can’t afford proper designers or project managers. The site still says “Twitter” all over the place and they can’t even trademark the new logo.

        Apparently they’ve hired an intern level designer then fired them after 2.5 weeks, once they handed in the design proposal.

          Market capitalization means that every share of MSFT combined at the current price is worth $2.6T. The company has $100B cash on hand. That’s actual cash and investments that could be easily converted to cash. Substantially less than $2 trillion.
