Microsoft has decided to not go after Yahoo…at least for the moment. Yahoo wouldn’t budge from their ‘bottom dollar’ price, and Micro$oft (nope, not a typo) would only go so high.

Methinks this isn’t the last we will hear of this. Yahoo corporate (in this case Yahoo founder and CEO Jerry Yang) played a little too hard-to-get, but the Yahoo shareholders may think a little different of all this once they realize they may have given away their best chance for the big bucks.
