I hope Ballmer and Gates have a dedicated CEO in mind now that Ballmer's leaving... very few people will be able to lead a company this large, and it will be quite a tragedy if Microsoft's reputation declines and takes down Nokia with it.

I heard a rumor that Paul Graham is being courted, but it is probably disinformation.

Microsoft could do a lot worse :-)

I would be very surprised if either party was interested in PG being CEO of Microsoft.

Haha good lord no. I doubt either party would be in any way interested.
