You know things are going badly when an announcement like this causes a 9% raise in MS shares...

I wonder who is going to be the guy/gal? Rumor is some dude from Nokia has a good chance.

He's a Canadian. I think we all know how that's going to work out.

Yup that's the fellow. Nothing wrong with him being Canadian, I'm just not sure that he has the experience that the position would require.

He used to work for Microsoft and is/used to be CEO of Nokia.
How the fuck does he not have the required experience?

I knew he used to work for MS but I didn't know he was the CEO at Nokia. I swear I heard he was the head of devices or something like that. Calm down Peeb, I don't make tracking the next MS CEO my full-time hobby!

One in which he joined from Microsoft and then basically sold them out to Microsoft. Agent Elop, return to base!
