Trust me, I am pretty cool under the collar. 70% qcom will do that for you. And I have cnbc blocked(the cable guys have to come to the house and filter it in Seattle to block it, but it is easier in most areas) so I have no idea what those idiots are saying.

The reason I made the comments about Ballmer is that his timing was idiotic. They announced a spin off of Expedia yesterday and he overshadowed it. I'd bet the plan is to spin out the others one by one so this was big news. But the dumbass can't keep his opinions to himself, so he fries his own shareholders.

My view from the toilet,

I heard an interesting snipet on CNBC a little while ago. It said that they could not find, anywhere, in the transcript of what he said the word "absurd." Could he have just been doing the usual dampening of expectations and the press have inflated what he said? Nah, the press would never do that....woudl they?
