Poor examples. Apple has no long-term debt (neither does Microsoft) and has 15 BILLION cash on hand. These companies are making money faster than they can accumulate debt (spend it). That's why they are constantly buying other companies. If they don't, shareholders will clammor for increased dividends (a bad idea if you're a company type, but good if you're a shareholder!
