If you have used or even played around with any of the Lumia phones or the Lumia 2520 Tablet then you would know that Nokia designed beautiful hardware. So tell me why having Elop and likely his hardware design team from Nokia running the hardware group at Microsoft is anything but a good thing? |
It's certainly a good thing for Microsoft, I mean you are fielding a very capable former ceo. However, many investors are wanting microsoft to ditch the xbox and bing as well, bc the enterprise side of the company is making more money. So Elop might have been put in yhis role to provide support for ditching the xbox since he already said that he would do so, given the chance. So, he might help sell it to Amazon or Ninty.

Where did you get the source for this rationale?

That's my conclusion, almost entirely. You know that elop did say that he would want to ditch bing and xbox if given the chance tight? To gill in the rest, the wsj said that the new CEO would have a hard time going against balmer/gates if he wanted to ditch these properties bc it would make them look kinda foolish for supporting them. Both are still on the board of directors, do they have considerable amounts of clout even today.
