Icahn: Smart, Dumb, or Just Plain Screwed?

Friday the 13th of June may not be so lucky for Carl Icahn and those that believed he could 'force' MSFT into YHOO purchase. Not many parties were successful in forcing Microsoft to do much of anything. I am also not so convinced that MSFT is dying to do web-based software distribution, the oft quoted reason for them needing YHOO in the future. It was likely all about ad revenue stream, and it would have been a rather pricey mkt share and not impervious to the GOOG steamroller.
