After the beating the company is taking in the stock market, and with several prominent investors stepping forward to express disatisfaction with how things were handled, Yahoo CEO Jerry Yang says he was willing to discuss things further whether Microsoft hadn’t turned its back on the offer. “We did not say it was a take-it-or-leave-it number in the sense that we would never negotiate any more,” he said, referring to the

$37 figure. “We were totally willing to do a transaction, and they walked away.” Deep down we know he’s just miffed to be lost out on sleeping bag to sleeping bag discussions with Ballmer about adding an exclamation mark to Microsoft. Dream on, Yang.
