And in related? news....
Microsoft CEO Ballmer cashes in $955 mn in stock
Agence France-Presse
Washington, May 27
Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer walked away with $955 million from his
sale of a portion of his company shares, according to documents filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Maybe that should be "the soon-to-be retired Steve Ballmer".

There was a similar case in Australia. Telstra (biggest Aus phone company)
migrated its 43,000 (?) employees to linux. Old Stevey went there as well,
to try and persuade them otherwise.
