Why is that sad? Disney isn't exactly a small company. In fact its quite impressive that Apples market cap is just under 10 billion dollars more than Disney.
Which begs the question could Apple even afford Disney? Even with a Loan? They have about 10 billion on hand.. And Steve owns another 7% of Disney witch is about 3 billion dollars if he was going to some how going to use that for anything
And if they could get Disney through stocks/cash/whatever.. Would it be the smartest thing Apple could do with that much money? I mean sure it gives them ABC and ESPN but with Steve on the board inside Disney now I'm sure he more than has the connections to get ahold of that content with out spending that kind of money anyways. Which I am sure he could have done with out even being in Disney to begin with.
Not only is there no point to it, its only ~18 billion dollars away from being as realistic as Apple buying Dell.
