If you thought recent developments in the long-lasting battle between Microsoft and the World (or Google, or Europe, or whatever) would cause Microsoft to stop acting like they own the world, YOU'RE WRONG!!!

Now, Microsoft threattens Yahoo in buying web-giant through share-holders if the company's board doesn't take Balmer's offer of over 44 billion Dollars.

OK, we know it's a long shot, but wouldn't it be great if Microsoft succeeded in its bid to buy Yahoo! and then renamed the company Microhoo? Because when you type "Microhoo" into Yahoo!'s search engine right now, one of the suggestions is "Microhoods." And given Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer's <A href="http://www.news.com/8301-10784_3-9912262-7.html">recent letter to the Yahoo! Board</A>, that seems like as accurate a description as any.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2008/04/05/microsoft-to-yahoo-youve-got-3-weeks-before-we-get-hostile/"><DIV>Essentially, Ballmer told the board that they've got 3 weeks to accept Microsoft's offer, currently valued at $42 billion in cash and stocks. If the board refuses, Microsoft will take the offer directly to Yahoo!'s shareholders and nominate a slate of board members to replace the current board. </DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/44EFE4C2-EC90-41F4-9A48-DBEE2841C684/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
