I think I will nominate myself to be the single person on Hacker News, who after an announcement of a huge mega-acquisition, will skip all the high-minded analysis and discussion of business models and ROI, and simply say:

Wow, I wish I had a $19B acquisition -- I'm jealous :-)

[MatthiasP]

I would already be satisfied with a $19M acquisition.

Hell, I'd take a 1.9M acquihire, with 10 year golden handcuffs :P
