paul thurrott has confirmed that the way forward for xbone is to make it a traditional dvr, microsoft is well poised to 'rumble' with tivo for that lucrative teen market share that still watches television rather than spend every waking hour watching people dump ice buckets on themselves or whatever the weeks new craze is on their phones

I'm wondering how much would it cost to just register a company then pay some analyst to make up some numbers that say that it would be awesome for microsoft to by your company for a whole lot of money.

I want to say this happened recently to a big networking company

there was also that guy in the 80s who turned a cleaning company into a $100 million publicly traded Ponzi scheme kept under wraps for years with a shell company and check kiting and ended up faking crates of documents to fool auditors during his IPO

the plan was to use the IPO money to end the scheme and go legit
