    According to Reuters today MS are considering buying just the search portion of Yahoo, which would be an interesting move.

    I think Yahoo may have lost out on what they could have had, MS won't match their last bid...it can only be less. They bid them up, not giving them quite what they wanted, ...ditched the idea and all the Yahoo! shareholders went nuts! Good strategy actually, Now Yahoo may actually HAVE to take a closer look.

    Buying search sounds about right. MS is going nowhere with their existing search engine.
