The New York Post created some buzz among those who didn't cut out of town early this (U.S.) holiday weekend by reporting Friday that Microsoft, for several weeks, has been discussing the possible acquisition of online auction site eBay.

If that happens,

Ebay will render only on ie
Ebay will work only on genuine windows. They will attach the wga on ebay.
The OS community will start LEbay.
Ebay will lose to LEbay

PS: LEbay might be changed to a different name like LEbspire
