Don't know.

But instead of trying to buy yahoo, they should have been trying to figure out how not lose so much money on their own internet search and related properties.

The microsoft plan was kind of like the clueless merger between aol and time warner. Course, with that, I am still trying to figure out how the nut jobs at time warner ended up in control of AOL when AOL was the then cash cow buying time warner. Do you know those ignorant f'ers killed all of AOL's user websites? Maybe they did it because Andrew Cuomo had their pants down around their knees and was working them with a dildo but still f'ing stupid.

At least yahoo, for the most part, had better sense than to listen to Microsoft and the Wall Street / New York Whores clamoring for the yahoo deal.

I find it sad how those Wall Street / New York SOB's have destroyed AOL which once was a strong brand name. Once upon a time AOL was as strong of a community / information network as any social network that has come since.

And it looked like they were on verge of doing the same thing to the Microsoft and Yahoo brands...............
