I guess bid withdrawal is just a standard negotiation technique to piss the shareholders and force the board, like Yahoo/MS and I believe Oracle/BEA

- seldo 18y agoYeah, this whole situation reeks of the Yahoo/MS deal -- lots of testosterone and people leaking negotiation status to see what it does to the stock price. Ugly. The difference, of course, is that IBM doesn't really need Sun, it just sees a good company at a good price, or it thought it did.
- eru 18y agoWhy is this a difference? Does MS need Yahoo at any price?
