The mouse buys a desk lamp
The sticking point was always the two CEOs, Michael Eisner of Disney and Steve Jobs of Pixar, whose affinity for one another was roughly equivalent to the relationship between Mufasa and Scar, to borrow a Disney metaphor. But with Eisner out the Mouse House door last year, and the more user-friendly Robert Iger assuming his position, it was only a matter of time before the deal got done.
One can only hope that the merger combines the best of Disney marketing and brand exploitation with the best of Pixar creativity, rather than the worst of each.
Time will tell.
