Up here in Seattle, the rumour is that Microsoft is working on a
replacement for Yahoo. But they will only activate it if it is able
to make money. Thus what will happen is that either YHOO
never makes money and decays away, or they start making
coin, and MSFT takes it away from them.

Noticed this quote in the URL kindly shown me in post 2619:
The second principle is that you never, ever want to
compete with Microsoft. And even if they want to compete
with you, you run away and do something else.

I supose that by "something else" they mean retire. :)
Here's the URL again:

Thanks, Mr. Harmond
