Apple should buy....
Nintendo (or should have before the Wii came out). The Wii even looks like an Apple product, and it definitely has the Apple aesthetic. From there go to having a wii compatibility layer built into OSX allowing Wii gaming on the Mac.
While they are at it they should buy Sun Microsystems and move OSX to the Solaris Kernel (or even host the GUI and APIs on Solaris proper). That would give them an entre back into the business space on a limited basis.
IMO, Sun's unix technologies are well ahead of Apple's and it would be a good mix. Sun and SGI have always reminded me of the "Apples" of the proprietary unix market.
