Goodbye Ballmer

Steve Ballmer is retiring from Microsoft. Sending stocks up. See here. Does that indicate there is now new hope for MSFT?

I've read someone wrote that the number 1 right thing to do to fix Microsoft is to get rid of the "goof ball" Ballmer.

Now to call him a goof-ball may be too harsh. He didn't envision that Metro design didn't he? The guy who envisioned that is definitely a goof ball. But Windows 8 and the Surface... will be forever logged as his failure to get Microsoft back to its glorious days.

His colleagues should plan a go-away gift... ah, the Surface would be a great gift idea. But I hope his colleagues is willing to shell out extra $ for that keyboard.
