If Yahoo had sold out its investors would have lost money and cried. This whole episode is proof that greed needs to not be a requirement.

From every viewpoint, other than a short-term greed based ones that idiots like Icahn worship, Yahoo is better off today than they were in January and significantly better off than they would have been if the current board were a collection of drooling idiots like Icahn and Ballmer.
