Steve Ballmer lacked two things: vision and taste, - and his personal lackings ended up coloring all of MS's efforts and products during his tenure as CEO.
Don't forget respect for human beings. He implemented particularly brutal stack-ranking.
Yeah, I think the only thing Ballmer has ever respected is money, he seems to me just a bean counter and obnoxiously hyped up "salesguy" in his personality, with not much depth beyond that.
I heard he's pretty enthusiastic about developers, developers, developers, developers...
Even though Ballmer was ceo during release, it was definitely the fucking moron Satya that buried Windows Phone.
