Ad-Free Site From the Masters of the Web Hard Sell

"It was bound to happen. Someone would introduce an Internet portal where people could check their e-mail, read news, look up stock quotes and such without the bustle of big moving, flashing advertisements that make using a site like Yahoo like walking through Times Square. "

Is it enough to be "Yahoo! without ads"

And how close can their design be before someone sues?

All the portal sites share a very similar look. Frankly in spirit it reminded me of google. Sadly their contact form wouldn't submit. I had some thoughts :( .
