Though it's an old news, want to add few bits.

Microsoft has offered 61% of yahoo! share @ $31. Yahoo! is going to financial loss and planning to cut staff in this quarter. In this situation, there is no way Yahoo! can refuse Microsoft's offer.

Google has reacted on this dealing, they have blamed Microsoft to trying to play monopoly over Internet purchasing Yahoo!
