...have to do on-site work for the next 2 days. No VR for me until the evenings.



Enjoy your VR day!

...looking for a fresh start and some opportunities. Just give me a chance. I will be fluid and find my openings. Before you know it, you will be surrounded and just trying to keep up.

Microsoft (NSDQ:MSFT) on Tuesday confirmed it will acquire Skype for $8.5 billion in cash -- a blockbuster deal that represents Microsoft's largest acquisition ever and could dramatically bolster its IP communications strategy, not to mention give Microsoft a new foothold in consumer markets where it has struggled.

$8.5 Billion... in cash. You know how many pallets worth of $100 bills that is?



Insane.



But the big news is for Skype users - once Microsoft takes over the service, expect it to be really, really crappy for at least a year following... Microsoft has a pretty good track record on acquiring then breaking good services, i.e. Hotmail.

When Microsoft takes over Skype... Does that mean, when a user of Skype has to d/l a update for Skye, it will crash the computer?

My exact thoughts were "ick now skype will be crappier than before"



But I feel bad for the iPhone users. They won't be getting much support from Microsoft on the apps will they?

Facebook is a $50B player. I doubt Microsoft could, or Facebook would sell.
