Listen to me!
- Steve Ballmer
- Redmond, Washington state, United States
- CEO and general Manager at the worlds most powerful and pervasive company, a mover and shaker with world changing influence and charisma. Don't freaking cross me! Microsoft wants to "get the appropriate economic return for our shareholders from our innovation," A few of my more memorable quotes: "I think it would be absolutely reckless and irresponsible for anyone to try and break up Microsoft." "There's no substitute for innovation, of course, but innovation is no substitute for being in touch, either." "What we've gone through in the last several years has caused some people to question 'Can we trust Microsoft?" "I like to tell people that all of our products and business will go through three phases. There's vision, patience, and execution." "Google is an illusion" "I don't know what a monopoly is until somebody tells me." "We don't have a monopoly. We have market share. There's a difference." "That whole monkey-boy dance thing never happened, that wasn't me, I was in Hardeeville that day" "I never threw a chair, uh, all of the chairs in my office are bolted down, so there!""Linux is a cancer..."

Too bad that Steve Jobs said "We have a manufacturing plant even Henry Ford would be proud of" At the time, I believe he was speaking of the MacBook Brick.
Perhaps it's even more sad that eBay values a run-over Macbook Brick to be worth over $1600.00.
Show me another consumer notebook which the market will pay $1600.00 after it's been run over.
It's all due to Good Ol' American Engineering, buddy.
So, I'm lost. Go ahead and move overseas and devalue Windows 7 to $100. But, there's a reason why most people pay taxes.
Perhaps some see little value in an operating system, computer, and MP3 player being designed and coded in California, which last I saw, was a part of the United States. It's a small price for me to pay to ensure my money goes to employ Americans.
Move your circus to India, the land of academic programming and cheap labor. Today, I remain quite happy knowing a Mac can boot in 30 seconds.
You're a Patriot when you pay taxes. You're a Patriot when you employ Americans. You're a Patriot when you buy American Products that can be run over by a Ford and they still function.
Good luck, FSB.
Here's you hat. What's your hurry? Dont lrt the door hit you on the way out.
You seem mad.
What's wrong? I was handed my ass 3 years ago when I asked "Why are we compressing our 10 year strategy?"
Get a grip.
And don't think you know more than anyone else.
The Solution? Move Mister Obama & Co. overseas!
