hi matt,

well, i'm one in favor of free linking and crediting sources who break stuff. that's the way of the web. in this case, cnet beat `em to it so kudos. Not dissin' silicon alley…i like their stuff as well

Thanks for the comment, Sam — but SIA's post makes it clear that they heard the same thing from their own source.

hi matt,

minor correction on your post. silicon alley was only reposting the story about the partial buyout. cnet originally broke that story

My opinion: I have to agree with Michael on this one, this deal will get done, just a matter of when and how much. MSFT wants this. As Vincent points out even with Yahoo MSFT is still a ways away from challenging Google but without it they aren't even in the same game.
