OK Yahoo could have been a Microsoft division, all of Microsoft’s internet ambitions would have been handed over to them, they would have been able to run semi-autonomously.
Or they can be ripped apart by private equity guys like Icahn – massive layoffs, milking their current traffic levels for cash flow, spinning off parts.
This is preferable? Did Yahoo management not foresee this??
