@monkbent You think that Microsoft has already picked someone but they're being coy about announcing it? Does that make sense? -
@JohnKirk if Bates, may need imprimatur of a board search -
@monkbent thank you for your thought on Bates. I’ll keep that in mind as “search” progresses.

@monkbent Begs the question why even kick something like that off? Then again why remove tthe person you've allowed to initiate such chnage? -
@alexjeffburke I've written strongly it's a terrible idea -
@monkbent Your case was incredibly compelling, especially around the career values proposition. It now just looks like a series of blunders!

@monkbent Then why involve a “leading executive recruiting firm”? And why not avoid uncertainty and announce the successor now? -
@ankinson appearances? Who knows. -
@monkbent Certainly not me. The markets seem to be embracing the uncertainty though. Apparently anyone’s better than Ballmer.
