I realize that I may be being overly critical of a site called 'winrumors.com', but this is thin gruel by anyone's standards. Because I work at MS, I don't want to flag it, but please, someone without a conflict should flag this.
Then there's the fact that the article is thin wrapper around a PI article about anonymous comments made on an anonymous (purportedly) MS employee's blog.
The only value that this article could possibly bring is to discuss Steve Balmer in general, and for that a self-post like "Hey, do you guys like the job Balmer is doing" would do a better job, and it would almost certainly sink like a stone. I'm actually embarrassed for this community that this made it to #1. Must be a slow news day.
