Google buys a fighter plane

However, I think the've made the first mistake in a career of successes: they bought an horrific plane when they could have bought a Sukhoi or Mig from the russians

You're into planes, huh? I just don't see why they need to buy a jet. I mean, c'mon I know they have money but this is too much..

No, I'm not into planes.
Well, I agree with you. But if I had so much money to afford a plane, I think I'd buy one to reach the destinations I want without buying a ticket, waiting for my plane in a queue and so on.
For example, I think I would have taken my plane to reach L.A. the 19th november..

You're right but it doesn't have to be a fighter jet!

Are they going to bomb Microsoft now?

I wouldn't be surprised. On the serious note, I can see Google coming out with it's own windows in very short year.
