Ballmer calls up Gates after Yahoo! Deal call off! 2008-05-08 23:23:00 After the Yahoo
! Deal was laid off, the whole Microsoft felt deceived and upset. On January 31st 2008, YHOO stocks closed at 19.03$. And a day after, the Microsoft announcing its interest to takeover the internet giant, its stock prices shot up to 28$ in a single day and even reached 30$ at some point of time. But because of the indifferent approach of Yahoo! Board, Microsoft had to call off the deal. Post Yahoo!, an upset Gatescalls
up Ballmer
.Gates: What is this, Steve? I expected more from you. You should have gone for the proxy fight. Why did you give up?Ballmer: No dear. There’s no point in it. They were asking for too much. And moreover they will anyway tie up with Google; there is no point in taking over in that case.Gates: What can we do now? How do we save our face? I am not ab
Yahoo! to bid for Microsoft??? 2008-05-03 08:12:00 After more than two months of speculation, negotiation, round tables, press conferences and ultimatums it seems both Microsoft
and Yahoo
! have said they have enough of the drama. Microsoft spokesperson on the press conference said that, "This is what we both wanted, to be in the front cover of all the business journals and portals, rise in share values and publicity. This was the biggest form of advertising both we and Microsoft could get and the master plan has really paid off!". He also noted that at the end we wanted to call an end to this drama, as we found the drama is losing its charisma."We are now thinking of bidding for Microsoft for maybe, 150 billion. I know we don't have that much funds with us. But we have asked Warner Bros. to sponsor this soap, and they have agreed to the sa
Microsoft Live Mess? 2008-05-02 22:54:00 Last week I tried creating a live account with id "codevalley" without giving much hope. But, to my amazement, the ID was available! That made it clear how unoccupied Windows Live is. I remember, my first internet service provider was Hotmail, years back. Then hotmail became Microsoft
property and soon plunged intto darkness and like millions even I switched sides to Yahoo! and Gmail.But, lately after the launch of Live campaign, I felt things have gotten rosy and glossier. So, I thought of giving a second try. Genuinely speaking, the designers have done a great job creating a new identity to Microsoft's web presence. But, Live is turning out to be "dead" with lack of popularity. Now, Microsoft launching their new Cloud computing concept Live Mesh, will it turn out be a revival, or will i
Windows may evolve, but bugs never. 2008-04-30 04:56:00 MythMicrosoft announced that it would delay its release of Windows
XP service Pack 3, as it uncovered a new found glitch last week. The same glitch apparently is already there in Vista Service Pack 1 which it has already broadly released last week.For lesser mortals, here is the full news.For others read on...RealityYou need not drop your jaws if tomorrow Steve Ballmer announces that the same glitch has been found in XP Services Pack 2, 1 etc, or maybe Windows 98 Service Pack 1 as well. As each of these Operating Systems have been coded from scratch and are entirely different than their predecessors, it is only the theory of probability to be blamed if the same bug is surfacing on all the OSes. You people never listened when I said I maths is flawed!!-Codevalleysillytech Read more:evolve
Welcome to the world of tech sattires. 2008-04-29 12:27:00 As each day passes, technology is getting more and more advanced, at the same time more complicated and weird. In the 1990s if you see a man walking on the road covering one of his ears with his palm and talking to himself, you would call him insane. But today, you know he is on a cellphone. That is how weird technology can look. Let's see if my sense of humor along with technology can get your funny bones tickling.-Codevalleysillytech Read more:Welcome
The Open Source Honeymoon! 2008-05-15 04:26:00 Open Source
, yes, that is what the computing world needs. Think how good it would have been if the software was sold rather than just the licenses of software being sold? Think about the infinite possibilities, you could get away from the blue screen of death, (and obviously get your own green, turquise blue or black screen of death, your choice!). You could remove internet explorer from the bundl Read more:Honeymoon
