Greatest corporate leader of all time...
I fully support SteveB and his intentions on making more big bets for Microsoft. Micrsoft is poised to dominate the Web 2.0 as it has the Web 1.0: by innovating based on standards and extinguishing rivals who do not adhere to those standards. Like Netscape before it, Google is about to learn the power of the Windows eXPerience. The Windows Live Era represents a fundamental shift in the way people of all nations communicate and collaborate. As an example of the power of the Live Era, my rep came by today with various gadgets and demonstrated how an email sent from my corporate Exchange account triggered vibrations and flashing lights on all of these gadgets. Our CEO and President both sat in stunned silence, fully acknowledging the power of what they witnessed. I then told our CFO that I was also betting heavily on the Live Era and demanded a "blank check" to make the Live Era happen ASAP. My rep then played a speech by Steve Ballmer on his Windows powered SmartPhone to cement the deal.
