    Then the Microsoft-Yahoo will be a direct competition with Google. That's nice.

    $50 billion is not all that enough for yahoo, anyways, i was thinking something else. what about the yahoo small business, will microsoft change some rules there, there is some mutual understanding between yahoo and msn, and they are comming together, but then i don't think yahoo will sell out!

    but then yahoo small business has the linux space, will microsoft stop that, i hope it is all just a rumor:rolleyes:

    I would think that paying $8 billion above the market cap. is enough.

    I guess the only topic here would be: does a Yahoo/MSN alliance form a threat to the almighty Google?

    MS+Yahoo might still not be enough to race ahead of google search :)

    Well whatever will be done but Google already be a winner because they pressured on MS to buy Yahoo.

    I am sure Google have no problem even Yahoo and MS joint. It may be MSN will go up.

    So next time Google on 1 , MSN on 2 and than Yahoo.:D
