You're a little light around the head, Dave, and by light i don't mean light as in sunlight.

Hope this helps.  ;)

hahahaha, but i'm the one who started the discussion, and again another response from you, as i said............too easy. ;D

Oh yes, you're the one who started it so you will have to have the last word, right?

Your Mom should have washed your mouth with soap more often, maybe then you had a better understanding of "conversations", David.  ;) ;D

I heard Microsoft won't touch Yahoo unless they can get Goodrum to sell them his site too.

There must be something.  Generally a company won't spend $46 billion to buy a company unless they have a reason.  Just my thoughts

They want to compete with Google.

The takeover bid shot up Yahoo's shares and they made a public statement to get the Yahoo shareholders roused up so the board members can't refuse..

They should merge. Yahoo's shareholders would be rewarded and Microsoft would be able to compete with Google.

They want the servers and storage space which is housed in massive buildings. It takes years to get those built and up and running. This will enable them to capitalize on ads and take Goggle on ( on ) that level. Although they would like the search business they are realistic and understand, that is Google's for good.

The question is, will Gates ever buy Google ( he owns the stock and so does Berkshire-Hathaway ) could Bill and Warren get together and take it over? Or would the Government step in?

That would violate anti trust laws and google is a 160-200 billion dollar company.
