Michael Liedtke, AP:
Microsoft Corp. has pounced on slumping Internet icon Yahoo Inc. with an unsolicited takeover offer of $44.6 billion in its boldest bid yet to challenge Google Inc.’s dominance of the lucrative online search and advertising markets. […]
In a statement Friday, Yahoo said it will “carefully and promptly” study Microsoft’s bid.
My guess: Sold.
I don’t think I’m all that comfortable with that outcome.
