    I can hardly wait... Combine a search-engine that nobody uses, with a contextual-based advertising network that can't deliver a targeted ad, and what do you get?
    more krap..

    It also says: " For some other analysts, Microsoft's plans make a purchase of Yahoo less likely. While the deal shows Microsoft's commitment to online advertising, it may take months to incorporate AQuantive's operations, Merrill Lynch & Co. analyst Justin Post wrote today in a note."

    I doubt it seriously that microsoft wants to buy yahoo right now. They first have to prove to there shareholders that they made the right investment with AQuantive.

    True, though Yahoo could definitely use the tech skills of the people at MS

    I'd much rather have my computer go: "Yaaahoooooo!" when I login LOL No, I agree, I can just see opening my browser to my website after switching over to the Yahoo Ad Network and seeing a whole buncha blue rectangles with exception errors printed in them.
