Microsoft should give up on Yahoo
Companies (at least publicly traded ones) are beholden to shareholders. But they also are beholden to their employees. And while most Softies are afraid to state for the record that they think Microsoft should abandon its takeover of Yahoo, that opinion is a real and prevailing sentiment among many in the Microsoft ranks.

These aren't folks who are saying Microsoft should walk away from Yahoo so that Yahoo's stock price will tank and Microsoft can swoop in and buy them later. They are folks who are opposed to a Microsoft takeover of Yahoo at any price. And while it's tough to take over successfully a company where many of the employees don't want to work for you, it's potentially far worse to alienate your own employees by spending billions to buy technology and people with whom your rank and file have no interest in working.
