Dark couds gather, as the fools struggle to escape ( February 15, 2008)

I said it in a vague way, that what Microsoft wants, they get. I didn't mean that any specific way other than to state my opinion, that the Redmond WA software behemoth juggernaut would slither its way along like a glacier, slowly eroding the opponent. Yaho would not be the first, merely the latest to be sucked into the vortex . (Sorry, got a little overly creative there)

Now word is filtering around the software and financial worlds that Msoft is using the divide and conquer on the Yahoo Board of Directors.

Microsoft stated “The Yahoo response does not change our belief in the strategic and financial merits of our proposal. As we have said previously, Microsoft reserves the right to pursue all necessary steps to ensure that Yahoo’s shareholders are provided with the opportunity to realize the value inherent in our proposal.”

It is believed that Microsoft may raise their bid for the takeover of Yahoo. It is expected that they would have to increase their $31 per share bid to $35 or $40 in order to get closer to a final deal.

More to follow, like you cared. But you will...meanwhile, i recommend either finding a new place to have a page, or get used to Windows Spaces (yewwwwww)
