Cramer on eBay & Yahoo! Merging; More Hope Than Substance?

On TheStreet.com’s Wall Street Confidential video, Jim Cramer was reviewing technology as an avoid and was negative on the tech warnings. He slapped Network Appliances (NTAP), CA (CA), and Analog Devices (ADI). 

One interesting note that Cramer made was briefly discussing the point that eBay (EBAY) and Yahoo! (YHOO) could merge now that Microsoft (MSFT) dissed Yahoo!.  Cramer thinks eBay has plenty of cash and could easily absorb the company in a merger, plus Meg Whitman could replace Terry Semel.  Besides the fact that this would make Cramer money in Yahoo!, there may be a lot more hope and hype here than there is substance.
