Share valuations now peg Apple as the most valuable tech firm in the world
Today marked a significant moment in the evolution of the consumer technology industry, as Apple overtook Microsoft as the world's largest tech company.
Fluctuations in share price value mean that Apple is now valued at $222 billion, while Microsoft is today worth $219 billion.
However, as reported by the BBC, Microsoft can still boast of higher profits than the company behind the iPhone, iPod, Macbook and iPad. Microsoft's most recent annual net profit totaled $14.6 billion, some way ahead of Apple's $5.7 billion.
