    Hey Microsoft is still trying to acquire Yahoo....

    They are now willing to pay more than 4600 crore $
    Microsoft is willing to buy a share at a rate of 35$, while the current cost is around 28$.

    But, Yahoo hasn't replied yet...

    Microsoft is trying to become a giant in the search engine field by acquiring yahoo...

    Microsoft walks away from yahoo!
    They couldn't agree on a price, but MS offered £25billion ($50billion)

    Yeah, I too head it... Yahoo said that the offer was very low...

    So, do you think Microsoft is giving up?

    I think Microsoft will still try.... They don't have much influence in the search engine field now and the live.com was not a success....

    Anyway, I haven't used MSN search for a long time....

    I can see MS trying again, but not anytime soon. Yahoo!'s share price tumbled 20% when microsoft walked away.
