Microsoft attempts to buy Yahoo! and Google reacts

Official Google Blog: Yahoo! and the future of the Internet:
Could Microsoft now attempt to exert the same sort of inappropriate and illegal influence over the Internet that it did with the PC?
Interesting times it seems. Can that be read as anything other than "gloves off, come on then"?

So not an ubergeek. I know people that actually _like_ Linux. I was only doing it to avoid paying license costs for Windows :->

And I didn't install it onto a partition on my PC. In fact I didn't install it at all. I went to Moka5.com, installed their software, said "A Ubuntu VM please" and 20 minutes later was booted to a desktop. No hassle required :->
