"Thank God"???

what? seriously? you don't want microsoft and yahoo to tie up?

yahoo by itself can't stand up to google. microsoft has the money to spare. a microsoft-yahoo tie up at least has a chance to challenge google.

60% premium to the stock price is a lot... i guess microsoft would have to increase its bid, still.

Yeah I don't know why it would be negative, unless Sony fanboys are scared it could boost Xbox sales.

 Eh I think it's more the Anti-microsoft... anti-fans?  Lots of people hate microsoft just because it's microsoft.

Reminds me of that one southpark, where they destroy Wal-mart.  Then support a local buisness... that in turn  becomes Wal-mart like.  Which they burn down again.
