When $80 Billion Is Not Enough
http://www.microsoft-watch.com/article2/0,2180,1907746,00.asp
By Mary Jo Foley, Tuesday, January 03 2006
It's just speculation at this point. But there were rumors this past  
weekend
that Microsoft offered $80 billion for Yahoo. Yahoo was said to have
rejected the bid as too low. On Tuesday, even though neither party would
comment, talk of a potential Yahoo-Microsoft deal of some kind sent  
Yahoo
shares up 4.4 percent. For the record, Microsoft has $40 billion in  
cash at
hand.
