Steve Ballmer throws a chair.
Again, Shocho, the huddled masses yearning for wisdom ask, "How is this news?" The crazy CEO of Microsoft is notorious for outrageous Howard Dean-like outbursts, and this is only his latest. Seems he's not taking a shine to Google's recruiting of Microsoft employees.
At that point, Mr. Ballmer picked up a chair and threw it across the room hitting a table in his office. Mr. Ballmer then said: "Fucking Eric Schmidt is a fucking pussy. I'm going to fucking bury that guy, I have done it before, and I will do it again. I'm going to fucking kill Google." ....I do love the salty language, though.

God forbid that money and success might make some of these people happy instead of turning them into violent cuss-mongers!
Marcus, his anger is understood. He's still a jerk, but I understand it.
Years ago, I read an article in a biz mag about how Microsoft will succumb from two angles -- sins of the past through lawsuits, and being too big, dumb, and fat to be competitive. Google is trying to become the next Microsoft, and there's nothing Ballmer can do about it. The fact that Apple can out-innovate Microsoft more frequently and with more speed says enough.
Microsoft is coasting on fumes. Their Office suite and Exchange Server products are standards because no one else is dumb enough to try to tap the boring big business market. Apple is doing just fine getting into every house and backpack in the country. Google is using Microsoft's technology against itself by burrowing through the browser.
I love that google has become the catch phrase you turn to when you don't know something and microsoft stands for deceptive business practices.
