Deal Could Bring Yahoo! to WNY

Yahoo! could be bringing its northeast data center to Western New York thanks to a deal between the state and the New York Power Authority.

Governor David Paterson says the deal includes a donation of low-cost electrical power. It's still subject to approval by Yahoo!

If the company accepts the proposal Yahoo! would create about 125 new jobs in either Niagara or Genesee county. State officials estimate the jobs would pay $65,000.

Officials haven't said exactly where the data center would be.
