Very humorous. One of the things most needed by microsoft to repair to reputation is to get rid of the people who developed the reputation. ie Mr. Gates and Mr. Ballamer. Til they go, who’s gonna trust them ?
It’s like the old proverb about the scorpion who askes the frog/turtle for a ride across the stream and promises not to sting him. And as they sink together the Turtle/Frog asks Why ? To which the scorpion replies, ‘because I’m a scorpion’.
