Does anyone collate a list of startups (in newfangled tech) likely to be acquired by Apple? Would be good to work for a place where a nice earn-out is likely.

  I'm sure M&A analysts in Consulting Companies would be collating this to enable their next pitch!

    Wait, so THAT's what M&A do? I thought they simply facilitate transactions once management has decided who to acquire. Which firm does M&A for Apple? That would be a great job.
