My apologies for the cross posting and somewhat off topic nature
of the post. However, I think this article really speaks volumes as
to why Apple and Microsoft are going in opposite directions. The
perspective of Ballmer has been MS's biggest problem for years now,
and this speech typifies why MS's stock and market share has taken
heavy hits in recent months. Make no mistakes, folks. It isn't a give
and take deal. Microsoft has been losing market share and stock value
consistently for five years now. This is the guy who went on CNN and
laughed at the iPhone when it was first released claiming, "No one
will buy a $400 cell phone." He hasn't gotten it and Still doesn't
get it.
Take Care
