I don't think you need to worry about this. The previous search contract
with Google gave Mozilla a revenue stream of approximately US $300
million. Mozilla has not announced details of the new agreement but most
financial analysts think that it should be in the same ballpark.

Maybe, but with two struggling companies, Yahoo and Mozilla, each going
into the deal hoping the other company will provide the necessary
strength to keep both companies afloat--how long can such a deal last?
