MS has enough going on
I read the MS blog and it seems to me as though MS is almost in a manic state of purchase, develop, compete, attack, release everything, on literally every front there is.

They need someone with the vision and intelligence to realize they can't beat everyone at everything in all ways at all costs and focus on the key areas where they want/need to win.

Adding OLPC as yet another initiative is insane, they are stretched way too thin. In the past week, they released what, 4 unique development environment and API kits?

I'm not saying they shouldn't do OLPC, but unlike 40 other initiatives, if you are going to do something, do it right, and maybe scale back some of your other battles that you know you are going to lose anyway.
