I wonder how this will affect stocks. Good or bad?

Waiting for Kowenicki to come in here and let us know how awesome Microsoft is. Looking forward to it haha

Unloading Nokia will help Microsoft but you also have to look at the bigger picture.  Namely; could the money spent on Nokia have been put somewhere else to better use?

So Nokia is going back to android now? cool.

Sure there is, we're just two guys that like Microsoft.  If I want to talk about Microsoft with Kowenicki, I will as there are no rules against that.  You don't make up the rules here, you just enforce them.  

We can also continue this as long as you like, buddy as long as you keep responding,  so will i.

What does this mean for MS phones?

Microsoft is so awesome, just letting you know. 

You don't have to tell me that,  that's why I wanted to talk about Microsoft. What's your favorite thing about the company?  I like how it started out in a garage, but made those early founders into billionaires that nerds love.

Uh I'll be nice!

It looks like MS is going back to what they do best, making software. It makes sense considering they can make more money just licensing out their OS and not have to worry about HW losses.
