It's fascinating looking at the pattern of acquisitions for the big tech companies. Apple has a mix of hardware and software, but they always work together to meet its requirements. Microsoft: either B2B software or gaming (which is where it matters in the consumer space).

Google: Hardware! Software! Analytics! How about some adtech? BUY ALL THE THINGS!

Google's acquisitions look a lot like those people who sit at home watching shopping channels, buying random stuff all day.
