    Definitely no one, but Microsoft isn't a weak opponent either, it would be a tough fight

    I should think so, if this fails, I don't see how anyone can stop Google from world domination.

    Don't discount Google yet, they are known for splendid and innovative things. Until the end results are out, lets keep a close watch!

    They will not beat Google as they will keep the two search engines separate. But combined it will come closer and become a decent competition. It might be especially interesting for advertisers considering the huge Yahoo internet properties, which have not been properly monetized so far.

    A duopoly would be the best results for us as small webmasters, I do not want to see any side win, just a nice draw!

    Microsoft suck. Hes that rich kid with no talent who complains at everything. You cant buy skill and this merger is just an attempt to salvage MS and keep face. Vista was a crash and burn, so what is left to do than to try to buy your competitor who does better than you anyway. IE, Vista, Web Studio, Frontpage, etc. are all MicroCrap. Yahoo is better than MS and MS needs to take some lessons from them and to stop trying to act like MS is so great.

    "Are you sure, that you are sure, that you are sure you are going to post this file?"
    umm...no

    I never saw people preferring Yahoo than Google!
    Yahoo is still Yahoo.com in India but Google is google.co.in in India. Got the reason why google rocks all over the world?

    Yes i think so (It's more of a 'hope so' rather than a 'absolutely yes').

    I don't think that anyone at the moment can beat Google.
