Samsung maybe making money in their display division (Samsung SDI) and they maybe making money in the DRAM and Flash memory divison. MOST of the profits is made in the CONSUMER electronics industry, in which Microsoft and Apple realize. Samsung is not smart enough to understand that they will ultimately lose out in the MP3/cell phone business if they give APPLE and Microsoft their own technologt at DISCOUNTED prices. There is no excuse for this preposterous business practice if I was the CEO of Samsung corporation.
Sammy is indisputably the largest corporation in the world, they literally own most of South Korea. Think how big AT&T was back before the whole anti-trust breakdown except having buildings, cars, and whole homes branded by them. Samsung pretty much makes most of the electronic parts you see in 90% of all home electronics so I'm pretty sure the whole relationship between Apple and MS works as an ecosystem and not them taking advantage of Samsung.
