to...Soft and / or Hard answers.

ok, to respond to your questions: one million. A adversarial takeover is one the place the administration of the objective employer do no longer decide directly to sell (i.e. Yahoo!) yet are compelled to for some reason, eg. the furnish is so good that it would be very dificult to attain that variety of fee by using accepted paying for and merchandising. 2. As till now, furnish the variety of physically powerful cost which could not be refused. 3. in many circumstances whilst a company is taken over, the administration of that employer is oftentimes fired, till there is an settlement in any different case, the two becuase of performance reasons, or interior the form of a adversarial takeover, the unique administration ought to decide on sabotage the employer, so this is greater effective to do away with them. straight forward workers in Yahoo! may be no longer likely to get fired on account that they are no longer in touch in determination making.

Yeah, they probably will. They won't be able to resist putting some sort of name change as a trade mark

with the ego of bill gates, ohhh probably lol .. my hope is that they don't change/mess with our emails and webpages .. one of the main reasons i got Yahoo mail was because msn's hotmail really sucks (to put it nicely) .. (my opinion) and can't say i agree with Microsoft's method of operation in all of this

Yeah probably. They changed "msn" to "Windows Live! Messenger". Yeah, thats way better than msn (sarcastic).

Probably not. It is so universally recognized as Yahoo already.

i bet they'll eventually name it msn.yahoo or something like that

yes to bill gates knows nothing so help him out.

MicroYahoo. And we'll all have to shrink! ;-)
