What I wondered about in the talks with Eric was whether or not there is such a gulf in perception between those inside MSFT and those outside, that those inside MSFT might actually believe what Ballmer says is true? I would like to say I really hated to see Eric drop from the discussion but I do understand the time contraint issues. Eric is a great guy and will debate an issue with class if I ever saw it. I believe Eric believes Mocrosoft is very innovative and it may be a good assumption that most Microsoft employees feel the sme way. Most people will switch jobs if they did nto get a feeling of accomplishmeent from what they are going. I believe those inside believe what Ballmer says is true. Is it misguided? Or could it be that the message is meant for those inside MSFT to reinforce their belief system? It is possible that Ballmer believes this too. He may not be making these statements without really believing in them. Maybe Ballmer does not want MSFT employees to have second thoughts. I feel quite certain we can count on this regardless if Ballmer believes in what he says. Talent is the key in the tech business.
