There may be hope for Microsoft yet.

Tar, feathers, congress. Some assembly required.

Not sure there is anyone left at Microsoft who would be able to carry them into the future. On a side note, MS stocks were up on the announcement.

It is a good thing that there isn't anyone left! They need to go outside the Redmond walls to find someone with a clearer view.

Re: Microsoft CEO to retire

As the new CEO of Microsoft, Satya Nadella, has now been selected, I have taken it upon myself to update some of Microsoft's old promotional material to keep up with the times.

I hope Satya Nadella is good at herding cats. From what I understand, the culture at Microsoft is considered very difficult to manage. I had a family member who headed up a team at Microsoft. While he loved his job, the politics really got in the way.
