i don't think apple would really gain much by acquiring yahoo. isn't yahoo kind of second rate these days?
Second rate compared to Google ? yes but in order to complete your portfolio , you cannot buy the first rate. I can name at least 5 companies which if they buy YHOO, will achieve big but I see AAPL can score big but maybe I am wrong.
AAPL will have emails, search engine, lots of social media, apps,..... and can compete better with MSFT, GOOG, Facebook.

Apple has #1 Us market cap now, how much bigger can they get?
I think AAPL should buy Red Hat (RHT) http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=RHT
Offer a premium of $50.00 a share ($10 Billion), make it as user friendly as Ubuntu and then they have a fantastic OS for the PC market and other devices. MSFT has a market cap of $226 Billion for their OS, RHT is well worth the $10 Billion.
RHT would also be a good acquisition for GOOG.

Your link to Yahoo's Finance site is the reason Apple should buy Yahoo. Google Finance is a distant second. I've tried it from time to time, but always go back to using Yahoo.
The others I use for my Internet market news are Bloomberg, CBS Marketwatch and Kitco. But Yahoo is essential. It ties everything together very nicely.
