| There’s been lots of back and forth about Microsoft and Ballmer being at risk
| of “losing face” if Microsoft gives up on its Yahoo acquisition plan. I feel
| as though there’s nothing embarassing about admitting your original idea was
| ill-advised, and after three months, you’ve realized you could better spend
| your billions elsewhere.
