You do know that you don't get any points, don't you?
"Men in Black" would have been enough to show you know the real answer (mind you, anyone who doesn't get this one probably doesn't speak English as their fist language)

Yes.
I don't get the relation between Men in Black and Snow White. Are you referring to white-woman -> men-black?

It's called satire.
Funny answers, or clever answers that make you think, are probably preferable to right answers.

I actually think it should have been called "The Giantess and the seven normally sized men", turn the tables, so to speak.
Imply that it is her that is abnormal.

I took delivery today of a Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) in .30-06 caliber[^], and I'm damned pleased. Little else this year has impressed me, but this event makes the year worth surviving. With a bit of luck, next year will have something worthy of note to look forward to...

A very emotional goodbye[^] from Steve Ballmer.
One of the few CEOs who are also a good person. It's very difficult to cry in front of thousands of people who works for you. Good fella.

He's probably emotionally upset for having blocked the growth of a company that could have potentially done better.
As to your claim on him being a "good person", I've got no clue. I don't know him personally, so I don't know how good or bad of a person he is in life. But it's rather good for MS that he's deciding to clear the way.
Just my opinion.
But he sure was one hell of a guy. And he forgot to end it with "Developers, developers, developers".

I don't know why people blame/hate him this much. IMO every single Microsoft product is much better right now. He is a decent CEO, he hasn't done anything groundbreaking, and he hasn't screwed up anything.

You don't have to know anyone personally to pass an overall judgement. He was friendly and humble in the interviews and presentation. His presentations were about customers and not about Microsoft (Like Apple just focus their presentation on how cool they are, it's never about the customers). For these many years he has maintained his 'good guy' attitude.
On the other hand Steve Jobs was a great CEO (I admire what he has done, but don't like him as a person), but as a person not as good as Bill Gates or Steve Ballmer.

He kind of did that as he left the stage giving people hi-five. The old guy has crazy amount of passion and energy at this age.

Yeah, I think I might have been a little harsh there. But it probably roots from from my feeling that MS has great talent which could have been put to better use. There hasn't been a lot of groundbreaking stuff like you said, which is probably what makes people dislike him generally.

I partly agree with you. Several products have been made better under his leadership, but there hasn't been any exciting innovation. Windows has come a long way in stability though, which is really great.
Rutvik Dave wrote: You don't have to know anyone personally to pass an overall judgement.
May be you don't but I do. At least to make comments on the line of "he's good as a person", etc.
He's passionate and crazy, which I will totally agree with you on.

Quote: every single Microsoft product is much better right now
How do you reckon Windows 8 as being better? Windows 7 is still a far better version. MS is going backwards.
In addition the Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 joystick was great - except the later versions of Windows don't support it properly, turning it into just another joystick without Force Feedback. How is that better?
