Delicious Guinness. [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/62YAzQ.jpg[/img] The lease for the brewery is for 9000 years.
IKEA gotta furnish our space stations
[QUOTE=J.Barnes;46794842]Delicious Guinness. The lease for the brewery is for 9000 years.[/QUOTE] The lease isn't valid anymore doe.
[QUOTE=SlashSpeed;46794505]I'm just gonna go and say it. Probably none. 1000 years is a long time.[/QUOTE] Hundreds of 'companies' and institutions have lasted well over 500 years already
[QUOTE=.FLAP.JACK.DAN.;46794969]The lease isn't valid anymore doe.[/QUOTE] New Year's Resolution: START. STOCKPILING.
Habbo Hotel
[QUOTE=FreddiRox!;46795249]Habbo Hotel[/QUOTE] That still exists? Last I saw it was an empty shell of the place it used to be. Most of the original rooms were gone, there was fucking "pay to do X" shit everywhere and everyone was in the fucking rooms partying or bumming for furniture.
Pepsi
Heckler & Koch Someone needs to make high quality weapons and Hk does it pretty well.
Toyoto, Mitshubishi, Samsung or some other company like these which manufactures from fridge to elevator to hospital equipments.
[QUOTE=proch;46792485]Apple[/QUOTE] Apple's definitely on its way out. When a company like that loses the visionary who led it, it eventually gets taken over by economists with no inventive creativity, and they stop making good original products. I give Apple another 30-50 years, tops. It'll probably have the same fate as Polaroid. Better tech will come along but it wouldn't be a good financial decision to follow it, so they stick to their current tech that will ultimately get out of date and they'll lose all their money. That being said, I think Starbucks is probably going to last for a thousand years, in one form or another. Unless they find out coffee's awful for your health.
Husqvarna, it's already 325years strong.
Taco Bell, the only chain restaurant to survive the Franchise Wars. [img]http://media.tumblr.com/3b423270a8f9ec9274c95246184378a8/tumblr_inline_n46k16ySYj1qgp297.png[/img]
Monsanto
Most likely Intel and nVIDIA. I'm not too sure about AMD however.
Not really sure anything would be still around in the same way they are now. The name or the product might be the same, but 1000 years is a long long time. But if I had to make a guess probably pharmaceutical companies and/or one or two banks (might merge together).
Companies have survived for more than a millennia before. Kongō Gumi Co., Ltd, a Japanese construction company, has been around for 1436 years. Then again the next 1000 years will see far more change than the previous, I think.
[QUOTE=Merijnwitje;46803008]Most likely Intel and nVIDIA. I'm not too sure about AMD however.[/QUOTE] I doubt any of the 3 will still be here in a THOUSAND years. That's a long as fuck timeline you know? Besides, Intel and nVidia haven't really done anything revolutionary in a long time, meanwhile AMD still pushes their part of the OpenGL, OpenCL, and even attempting to get Mantra in as a OpenGL Next specification, while many other players are still doing fuck all. Intel talks about reinventing computers, but never do shit, and AMD partner with ARM for servers instead.

[QUOTE=ferrus;46803253]Mantle :eng101:[/QUOTE] Yeah, Mantle. All these fucking terms that never really get to be used, because no one cares. It can be a bit confusing at times.
[QUOTE=Mooe94;46794277]1000 years is so many years it is ridiculous. a more realistic question would be 10 to 20 years and easier to answer[/QUOTE] yeah this threads a joke but maybe its just supposed to be go back 50-40yrs and people will say Sony will last 1000 yrs or something like that things happen
Runescape
[QUOTE=JustExtreme;46800348]Monsanto[/QUOTE] Not a chance
[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weihenstephan_Abbey#Brewery[/url] 35 more years to go.
If Jack In The Box and Carl's JR don't make it I will literally travel in time to bring them in the FUTURE
The Royal mint will still be around in a thousand years, since as a company it's been operating since the 9th century. As long as there's always a England, there will be a Royal mint: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Mint[/url]
england won't even be around in 30 years at this rate
[QUOTE=Antlerp;46803362]yeah this threads a joke but maybe its just supposed to be go back 50-40yrs and people will say Sony will last 1000 yrs or something like that things happen[/QUOTE] your life is a joke.
