Microsoft-Yahoo Deal Should Heat Up Soon

"We ought to announce something in relatively short order," Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer told to his employees in a Thursday company assembly. According to the Wallstreet Journal, the announcement might be as soon as today.

Microsoft's Chief Executive also hinted at raising the price in its bid for Yahoo. "I know exactly what I think Yahoo is worth to me. I won't go a dime above, and I will go to what I think it's worth if that gets the deal done."
