I think this is rather big news!
I am guessing this will just mean less revenue for Mozilla, but no less insanity, since that seems to come from Mozilla itself.
What think?
That, sadly, this will only happen to US users... by default, and by default means that anyone can still switch to Google, and also that Google is over a 90% of usage in EU, therefore the deal is not too much for Mozilla, but is true that they will have less money. In US they have about 75% of share.
Anyway, nowadays, whatever that removes portions of power gave to Google, is great!

And about Mozilla, I don't think they will suffer much. If they changed for Yahoo is because they put a good amount of money on the table to sign for.
All which isn't K-Meleon related.
