Microsoft bids $44.6-billion for Yahoo

M$ out bid me by $44,599,999,000 bit I was going to throw in a Tim Horton's gift card and a few yummy beaver tails to sweeten the deal!

I think it makes business sense for the two companies with the U.S likely in recession. Yahoo is apparently in trouble and M$ Live has never really taken off. The premium is 62% over the Yahoo close. At that price it will be hard for the Yahoo Board of Directors to say no.
