Apple (and Old Spice) has also demonstrated what a difference a whiz-bang media campaign can make to an otherwise mediocre product lineup, and I don't think Microsoft is hurting in any way other than PR, which I think a good CEO could fix.
Whether the next CEO is someone who can do that is pretty questionable, but there's no question that Ballmer was not that guy.
Yea agree. Actually both Apple and Microslop have a chance to be big players. Balmer wasnt the guy, and I dont think Cook is the guy either.
