Well, at least Ballmer didn't throw chairs at them. Not that I know of. But he's still in time to improvise a disapproval dance and rap against them.

Yeah, in summary Microsoft leadership is out of touch with reality and the whole Win 8 echosystem (incl Phone 8, Win 8 tablets and the Win 8 PC OS) is such an enormous failure that will even start to alienate the business market and lead to a death spiral for MS. |
Two things could be particularly harmful for MS:
1) Windows RT closed marketplace is the opposite of what every Windows user, except the minority of Windows Phone ones, expect from Windows and PC in general
2) Trying to merge PC, Phone and Tablet markets with a version of Windows not particularly well received could open a door to disruption from competing well established Phone and Tablet OS'.
