Gamstop and EB set to merge

I am shocked and awed. It is the merging season or what? First Adobe and Macromedia and now this. Gamestop and Electronics Boutique are set to merge with Gamestop agreeing to buy Gamestop for $1.44 ba-ji-hillion dollars. After the fact, Gamestop (the surviving entity) will have around 22% of the market which is about the same as WalMart. That's a lotta business. More details here.
