<<Cisco is successful at growing by buying things, so clearly it can work outside the software industry. IBM has tried it a few times, and it doesn't seem that successful to me. MSFT doesn't do it>>

Are you saying that MSFT developed their own browser and audio-video streamer in house? I think not. Most of their innovation has been acquired. MSFT is the King of taking those pieces of software (applications) and selling them.
