Don't think this makes sense.

People seem to forget but MSFT's stagnation started under Bill's reign. It just continued under Ballmer.

Bill was the one that 'vowed to crush Google' by investing $2B in R&D in search and web services.

We see how much that worked.

I think they should get someone that can lead them into the web services future - not someone that is deeply attached to the desktop.
