What do you mean you will miss it? Are they going bankrupt or what?

they might not go bankrupt(as I said they got no debt) but I dont think the everything is free bonanza will go forever. the IRS shouldn't be charging taxes from yahoo, they are a charity institution right now

I used to like YHOO finance when they gave free real time quotes...today its hard to find a website giving away free real time quotes, its not 1992 its 2007.

I expect they will say they need to 'cut costs', I just hope their good free stuff dont go away. executive compensation is the place they need to go to cut costs, but which CEO has the guts to do that?
