1. Samsung-Nokia sounds like a megacorp in a third-rate cyberpunk novel 2. Lots of Mongol memes. 3. Symbian gets a new lease on life and the Nokia N950 gets released for public consumption?

This thread is also open to other tech what-ifs. Samsung-Nokia still sounds like a cyberpunk name though.

Xerox invented the computer mouse and GUI Desktop and the engineers were laughed out of the room so they sold the tech specs to apple for practically nothing.

Wow dude. Way to throw me for a loving LOOP with that insane hypothetical. I can't even begin to explain the horrific anxiety, confusion, and fear caused by even beginning to approach an understanding of something so wild and outlandish as your suggestion, actually happening, in real life. I feel like you've opened the void into some sort of grotesque dystopia whose mere suggestion dramatically and fundamentally altered my outlook on reality. I have been gutturally shaken to my core.

Nokia were poo poo at producing software. Samsung are poo poo at producing software. They'd probably have tried to merge Meego into Tizen or something and they'd still be working on it today and it'd still be poo poo and something you only find shipped in two brands of Samsung TV sold in Kazakhstan or whatever.

If Samsung had bought Nokia instead of Microsoft buying out, windows phones market share would be a lot smaller

Microsoft bought Skype in May 2011 for $8.5 billion.
