Why do you find it fascinating? When did anyone at Microsoft knew what the f*** they were doing? Should I give you examples? Windows RT, XBox One, Windows Phone.... this is a company with its head so far up its ass that it has cut all circulation to its brain... there is no rational thinking at Microsoft... So let's hope cutting the head will solve the problem... but I don't have high hopes if they only replace him with another MSFT cult member...

I find it fascinating that Balmer was in talks with Elop to acquire NOK just a couple of months ago when Balmer must have surely known he was preparing to leave MSFT .

Could be. These companies are joined at the hip at this point, at least wrt mobile. If you want to stretch things, you could almost say Nokia is a subsidiary of Microsoft. Is it healthy? Got me.
