Microsoft buys Aquantive

Microsoft spending 6 billion for an acquisition! Thats very rare. And for aquantive.... Seems like a lot of cash indeed. Microsoft is looking to reverse its fortunes in the Ad business... But i doubt that this acquistion will increase their chances. I'd say their chances of effectively competing with Google we're zero before this acquistion, and about two times that after shelling out 6 billion.
