May 25, 2006 Fire Ballmer

Paul Kedrosky says it's time to fire Steve Ballmer:

With today's news that Microsoft's Vista could indeed slip further into next year, as I had promised would happen, there is only one rational response from Microsoft's board: Fire Steve Ballmer. He has long been an erratic force inside the company -- someone with real strengths, but also horrible deficiencies (among which is being utterly tonedeaf) -- and it is finally clear that the latter permanently outweigh the former.

Of course, Ballmer had any decency he would simply resign. The odds of that happening, however, are very low.

Hmmm...decency from Ballmer? Let's look at the evidence:

F**king Eric Schmidt [Google's chief executive] is a f***ing p****. I'm going to f***ing bury that guy. I have done it before, I will do it again. I'm going to f****ing kill Google.

Yep, it's a long shot.
