Microsoft / Yahoo: Dead? Dithering? Drunk?

I own MSFT shares and I am by now sick of all this Yahoo this/that... all the head honchos at MSFT are being distracted. The stock is trading about 10% lower because of this major distraction.

Dear Mr. Ballmer, play hardball with them. YHOO got a really great offer. Just look at what Wendy shareholders have been "rewarded" with by Arby's parent company. Something like 5% !

BTW: Yang is Chinese-American and the ethnic background plays a role in this BIGTIME. My SO is Chinese, so I know better. Pride is important to them. And Yang's EGO is offended by this offer. That's why all this resistance and holdup.

Street Sees Solid Quarter for Microsoft

Q: If Yahoo board knows earnings will be "bad", wouldn't they try to make a deal with MSFT before that earnings report will be released
