Probably somewhere in their portfolio. There was a sizable investment in the early-90's during MacOffice and "we're all friends" promotions but I believe they got out of that a few years later.
Apple likely owns some M$ as well. Just a normal part of a diversified investment portfolio. Not on the same scale, but both companies have lots of cash in the bank.
