Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer taking a Suge Knight approach to the whole Yahoo! Thing

By SDH And we thought this evaporated into thin air when Yahoo! CEO Jerry Yang said fuck you to Microsoft’s $40 billion offer. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer really wants Yahoo! and it looks like he is sick and tired of waiting around while Jerry Yang plays hard to get. Now Ballmer is offering ultimatums, telling Yahooers they had better come to the table or they will go over heads to get the deal done. Ballmer believes Yahoo! got the best offer out there and will try to convince the company’s shareholders that it is. "If we have not concluded an agreement within the next three weeks, we will be compelled to take our case directly to your shareholders, including the initiation of a proxy contest to elect an alternative slate of directors for the Yahoo board," wrote Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer.
