    I think it was a decision that they felt was right at the time. Who knows in the future what might happen. Microsoft will try and acquire anyone on a whim if it takes their fancy.

    I applaud Yahoo! for their defensive stance during that period of time. Marvelous from a true Internet company! :D

    Microsoft is just interested in Crushing Google some how. Bid of yahoo was one big chance for Microsoft to aquire lot more users including many webmasters, who are using YPN. MS Adcenter is not very succesful.

    Google is daily doing things which are adapted immediatly by many many users. Google has lunched his Browser which i think is a first step towords his own OS.
    Just Consider Google lanched it OS say GOS :). i am prety sure that will be batter than windows or atleast same as windows. and i think it will also be free. where will Microsoft stand.

    So Microsoft is doing every thing to compeat with Google. but sofar Google is Lot ahead.

    not sure what will happon in comming future. but one thing. Yahoo really decided well by not going with Microsoft.

    Thanks

    Microsoft was trying to acquire yahoo because of their publisher network? You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about, do you...?
