Posted by Lawyerkill on April 5, 2008, 6:48 pm Steve Ballmer is losing patience. On Saturday, the Microsoft CEO issued an ultimatum to Yahoo's board of directors, writing a letter that said "now is the time" to negotiate on Microsoft's bid to buy the company. Ballmer set a three-week deadline for Yahoo's board to shake hands or else face a proxy fight in which Microsoft would try to oust Yahoo's directors and nominate its own committee. http://techland.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/2008/04/05/microsoft-ceo-to-yahoo-three-weeks-or-proxy-battle/?source=yahoo_quote Posted by Homeless on April 6, 2008, 3:56 pm > Steve Ballmer is losing patience.
