>Question: Since Yahoo's stock hit the floor, Viacom has been seen as a likely suitor. Under what conditions would you buy Yahoo?

Yahoo has 185 million users, and the analysts are estimating they are not making a profit this year. And what happens in the era of wireless when you get the information you need on your cell phone?
