Bigger severance package

I think that Microsoft can provide a bigger severance package is a big attraction there.

Yeah but they're too cheap...

I'd rather...

have to adopt windows, since AOL is very unix centric. Working for
M$ is like working for satan.

Yahoo/microsoft
by ruby2day April 12, 2008 11:37 AM PDT: I would like it better if Microsoft made the successful bid: hopefully it would stay the same,as far for the way yahoo has it set up; any changes hopefully would be easier for the operator.aol has flooded the market so much that you can only get on the site for a little while then your knocked off. Plus i believe aol is really not operator friendly, at least the last time i was on it..
