Re: I still don't get it said by Subaru:holy hell.. $4.5 Billion?? first time for me hearing the price on it.. Is Skype worth that much in the first place?!?!? eBay paid approximately $2.6 billion (thats with a B!!!) in up-front cash and eBay stock, plus potential performance-based consideration.
Those Skype kids made a fricken killing!!! damn! 
as someone here said.. Miss CEO should be fired and sued by her stock holders..

Those Skype kids made a fricken killing!!! damn! as someone here said.. Miss CEO should be fired and sued by her stock holders.. Most Ebay sellers would like to see Meg Whitman fired. Look at their users boards on eBay...they hate that woman.

Actually, under her "fine" leadership, her constant raising fees on sellers is catching up. So is the massive fraud on eBay. 90% of FTC Complaints are about eBay. The Skype writedown didn't look good either. Users on eBay are also declining in visits and lots of auctions never have a bid. Eventually, she'll get the boot. Sellers are leaving eBay everyday en masse. Buyers are too since the fraud is getting so ridiculous. Oh, and they are getting sued by Tiffany's too.
