Microsoft Buys Out Opera And Sings


I can hear Bill G saying "touche!".

There were lots of rumors Google was going to buy Opera for a mobile OS.
Things are heating up in the mobile space.

From CoolTech Microsoft buys out Opera

Opera will bring a significant number of things to the table for Microsoft. First and foremost, Opera will help compete against Firefox, the biggest threat to Microsoft’s Internet Explorer currently.

Perhaps the most desirable feature that Opera has to offer is its mobile version of the browser. Thus far, it’s the best mobile browser currently on portable devices, and it will surely give Microsoft an easy entry into the mobile market.

There has to be a Fat Lady reference in here somewhere.
