While Marissa Mayer is busy trying to figure out what to do with Yahoo’s new $ 4.5 billion in cash — recently gained from selling 20 percent of its holdings in Alibaba back to, well, Alibaba — the Chinese web and eCommerce giant has recently been in a heated exchange with Yahoo’s old pal, Google.

The fun apparently began after Taiwanese PC maker Acer cancelled the launch of its new phone in China — an event that had been getting a lot of buzz.

Long story short: Google objected to Acer using a rival OS in its new phone, according to the WSJ.
