McDonald's for sure. Ha. Even maybe Walmart, since Walmart is pretty much taking over the world.

I think Bubble Tea, Starbucks, Arby's, and... Morning Glory will still be around hehe... because they are popular around the world.

i don't think any of these companies will exist that long from now. but if i had to pick one, i would say microsoft. but its a reeeeeeaaally long time from now, because if you think about it, i don't know of any companies now that have been around for 500 years.

i saw either coca-cola, pepsi, or some tobacco/cigar/cigarette company will still be here in 500 years.
they've been around for a while now, so i bet they can last a few more centuries. |

|Think about it, what type of companies stand the test of time? There are beer companies, coffee and tea companies, and trades that are still around from the 16th Century. Therefore I would say something fundamental like 'PG tips' (tea) will be around for ever. Although teh way teh nanny state is going, Caffeine, Alcohol and Tobacco will all have been brainwashed from our society. Fast food will hopefullly fade away, and in the revolution that IS going to come, mega companies like Halliburton, Mcdonalds, Gap etc will rot in hell. What is popular now WILL change, just look at the Simpsons. Also any companies that cannot adapt, for example car companies perhaps will fade away.

In 500 years the world would be very different and who knows if Microsoft would still be around, it would probably be replaced by something better. But through out all the changes there is one thing that will stand strong through the changing of the world...KLEENEX!
 we need 'em tissues. (lol i dunno, i looked around my desk and that was the first thing i saw)
