Some Perspective MSFT is currently showing $13.9 billion in cash on their balance sheet. To give some perspective on what that means, consider that for all of 1997, only the top 98 companies on the Fortune 500 list did more than $13.9 billion in sales. MSFT's current on-hand cash is larger than last year's revenues for household names like Delta Air Lines, Time Warner, Goodyear Tire, and some 400 other Fortune 500 names. Perhaps that helps explain why MSFT is so highly valued.
