Nedal0 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Finally its been announced. I guess the Windows 8 Ship is Sinking and taking the Captain Along for the Final Swim !Here's the article below:http://www.theverge.com/2013/8/23/4650596/steve-ballmer-retiring-as-microsoft-ceoNo one will miss Ballmer really. Nothing memorable during his tenure and there was rumours he was going anyway. Now Windows 8 can redeem itself. :showoff: :showoff: :showoff: :showoff: :showoff: :showoff: :showoff: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emerglines Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 "within the next 12 months" M1cr0$h1t is fucked up , Xbox one is garbage, Windows 8 is bullshit and more over their shity games are over priced. 12 months is enough to eliminate M$ from the game...

november_ra1n Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) After unsuccessful Vista he come to power being Microsoft CEO and in his time Windows 7 published give him some sort of credit and do not accuse everything on the shoulder of one man, the end of the day one goes other comes and nothing is forever for sure.http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/microsoft-ceo-steve-ballmer-retire-12-months/story?id=20045625 Edited August 24, 2013 by november_ra1n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tezza Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 "Stock markets have reacted positively to today's news, with Microsoft's stock trading 7.5 percent higher." :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigen Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Rofl at Microsoft shares jumping nearly 10% higher with news that Ballsmuncher is leaving. Unfortunately he will be given millions of $$ in a golden handshake and also tons of M$ shares as a retirement present. I'm betting he doesn't even use windows 8!

MidnightDistortions Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I don't know whether this is good or bad. I don't really know whether Ballmer is responsible for the W8 nonsense or it's quite a few of the employees that actually designed it. Despite me wanting to move to Linux, i can only hope that the future of MS goes well with the new CEO. They would be walking into a mess lol. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They follow what the Microsoft has outlined for them so those designed are definitely signed off by Ballmer. Windows 7 was a fixed up Windows Vista so there is no credit for Ballmer there as Vista was being fixed anyway.

MidnightDistortions Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Well all i can really hope for is MS will get a CEO that actually listens to consumer feedback, properly deal with the XP user base and find a way to give users a better option between the desktop or the modern UI. Can't really expect users to move off an older OS when all you have to offer is a new UI and a half W7 OS. (well it is more than half way but if they keep removing features it's not going to be much of a W7 left) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
