   That could be the truth too. Yahoo! marketshare has been eroding and the possible MS buyout could be artificially floating the share price for only a little longer. Yahoo! could be in more trouble than they are allowing themselves to let on and are simply posturing for more money ( Reference ). They may shortly wish they took the offer ... and go the way of Compuserve and AOL. MS may be better served by investing in themselves and hurrying that process along.
   
   Regradless- the bottom line is that I sense that it is mostly greed that is dragging out this discussion and not Yahoo! value.

   I'll agree with you on this, Qeldroma. Sounds like nothing more than the big wheels at Yahoo trying to extract the last penny out of the whole deal for themselves, not Yahoo shareholders.
