As a former NOKIAn I am sad. I want to see MS go down in flames and without Elop it's gonna be difficult. However Indians are also very talented at destroying the spirit of their own companies and alienating their users (see Harman or Adobe) so there is a hope...

As a current Nokian I find your attitude to be unrepresentative of what Nokia stands for, and unfair to the great many Nokians of Indian descent who helped make Nokia the incredible company it was.

That's kinda racist

kinda?
I'm sorry that you're sad. It's also sad to create a new account just to bash people.
It's irrelevant what Indians as a class may or may not be. Considering the choice is about a specific individual, not a random selection from a group, there's definitely more information than useless (incorrect?) stereotypes. Ballmer's a white guy and did a fine job destroying and alienating.
@nokia_chi, Wow! I'd like to hear your expert opinion on NSN CEO as well. /s
