Actually, if you think about it, a lot of software from MS was just a buyout of another product/company. I'm sure PowerPoint fits this Category and perhaps Excel and Word (though I don't care enough to do some research). Even then, stuff with their name on it, I believe, was contract work or some sort of subsidiary of some kind.
