Apple Becomes “The World’s Most Valuable Company of All Time”

This is not quite typical Zombiegamer news, but we found it interesting nonetheless. The iPhone and iPad are also capable gaming devices too.

Reuters report [as cited by CVG] that Apple has become the world’s most valuable company of all time, with a market value of a staggering $623.14 billion.

The iPhone, iPad maker has reportedly surpassed Microsoft’s previous record of $620.58 billion, which was set in 1999. CVG note that the figure does not take the inflation factor into account.

Speculation has it that Apple will release both a new iPhone and iPad this year, and rumours have pegged a September release date for the iPhone 5 and a pre-Christmas release date for the iPad Mini.
