Microsoft Offers $44.6 Billion To Acquire Yahoo

TechCrunch reports that Microsoft is offering to acquire Yahoo for $44.6 Billion. A copy of the letter Microsoft sent to Yahoo is also in the article.

I must admit, the offer must be tempting for shareholders given Yahoo's current state.

The guys at Microsoft were quite patient to wait a year and rather intent to offer so much for a company struggling to stay in the black.

All I can say is ... "Resistance is futile .... "

I'm just worried about what will happen to YUI, if the buyout happens. Is YUI.NET in the horizon ?
