Boulder-based Vexcel Acquired by Microsoft

Vexcel specializes in remote sending and data acquisition and processing. This may seem like a step away from Microsoft's core competency which is selling software. Vexcel is more of a hardware, services, and data (imagery) company. However, the acquisition should help Microsoft compete in providing the freshest and most detailed imagery for Windows Live Local and Virtual Earth.
