[QUOTE="The Feedster, post: 512677, member: 259515"] Microsoft’s ebullient CEO Steve Ballmer has been included in TIME magazine’s 100 most influential people list. The larger-than-life Microsoft man has become an increasingly influential figure at the Redmond company since Bill Gates announced that he will step down in June this year. Ballmer’s on-stage antics – a famous monkey dance, throwing a MacBook Air to the ground and fairly regular bursts of screaming enthusiasm – have made him a cult figure within Microsoft. [B]Chief warrior[/B] But it is business acumen that has planted him firmly among in the esteemed company of TIME’s list. "He is actually Microsoft's combative, take-no-prisoners chief warrior," says Guy Kawasaki – the former Apple evangelist who wrote the *TIME profile. “If you want 95% of the wallets of every market that you're in, then you want this Steve. If you want 95% of the mind share of every market that you're in, then you need the other Steve (Jobs).” [url=http://www.techradar.com/news/computing/ballmer-makes-time-influential-list-356042]More...[/url] [/QUOTE]
