I think it means they want to do things his way...

Do we know anything about what he would do?

That isnt what you meant and that isnt what it means.

You were inferring that the rumours (and they are only rumours) of him wanting to get rid of xbox should he become the boss of Microsoft will now surely happen.

So let me get this logic straight.

Ballmer, knowing Elop would get rid off Xbox, puts the guy in the frame to run xbox, before xbox one is even launched.  So they spend billions developing and releasing a new console knowing the new boss of xbox would spin it off?

Genius!

 

All i see are assumptions on your part. You shouldn't fill in what people might be thinking, it's counterproductive, especially in discussions forums like this one.  (1)

And what does getting rid of Xbox mean in your vision anyways? Are you picturing it like someone selling stuff on e-Bay or what?  (2)

So you ignore my very salient points and become all sarcastic...

1. whatever you say.

2. for someone that get all uppity at me for being patronising and having a "tone".... you are do a good job.  Dont talk to me like I'm an idiot pal.

You're forgetting about option;

3. You could just NOT reply to my comment when you're not ready to have a discussion, in which you've appointed yourself to being right beforehand. Saves us both the trouble. Don't you agree?

Dude.... you could have just explained what the "one thing" this news could "only mean" was from the beginning. You got all Socratic about it, and it really looked like you were backpedalling because you didn't want to give a solid answer. YOU are the one saying definitive sounding things on the forum and then getting defensive and weird when someone asked what you meant.

"You could have just not replied when you're not ready to have a discussion" - seriously?

You could have not said "This could only mean one thing!" when you weren't prepared to say what you meant.

Sheesh.

Why are you letting this get to you? He replied to me and i tested showed him that everything he's saying are assumptions, something you seem to be doing as well. So post on topic and don't butt in as if you're a part of the discussion.

What a weird way to reframe the situation. We're all part of the discussion - this is a public forum, not 'Somini can tell people not to talk to him or comment on what he says' land.

If people 'shouldn't respond to you or ask you what you mean,' then you shouldn't post in the forum. If that's your official position, YOU are the one in error, not people who ask what you mean or feel like responding to you. But I'll make a point to completely ignore you in the future because you're obviously a contentious person and I see little value in trying to reason with people like that.

I'm not sure what your problem is!!

I commented on the topic and he asked something to which i gave an answer, multiple times. It's not my fault you're not happy with it. If you don't like my answer or the way i'm discussing, then please refrain from replying to me at all times.
