Why don't you do it. Go to the annual report and break out Office sales to corporations with 200 seats or over. Then reference their market share. Analyze SQL Server revenue, realize that their market share in NT is second only to Oracle, and is fourth if you include UNIX where MSFT does not even offer a product. Add in to that Back Office revenue, then NT server revenue, then add in all other NT revenue. Add in the other stuff that I forgot to mention such as developers tools, etc. (don't forget to compare growth to competitors who are in the picture), and you will find about 4 or 5 billion dollars of enterprise sales that you say is not even in the picture. Now, if a company that makes 5 billion if revenue and keeps close to half of that in after tax profits is not in the picture, we must have some very large market caps for those that are in the picture.
