Steve Ballmer Doesn't Get It
by Eric "smurph" Murphy on Jul.14, 2009, under tech
Poor Steve Ballmer. You can always count on him to stick his foot in his mouth. Whether its claiming a new trend will never be big (ie. iPhone), or accidentally revealing something that M$ wasn't ready to announce, or just plain being wrong, he's always good for a laugh. Recently, he seemed a bit confused as to why Google is releasing a second client OS. Last I checked, M$ has had two current client operating systems for quite some time (PC, mobile). Why that's so perplexing to him, I have no clue. Google made their directions of the two operating systems pretty clear (Android = mobile, Chrome OS = netbook/laptop/PC) which is pretty much M$'s model as well, minus all the different releases (Home, Pro, Media Center etc). All I know is I'm looking forward to that new xbox coming in 2010 (joke).
