I guess that he deserves the spot on this list due to the fact that he contributed to flops as:
>Windows Vista
>Windows 8
>Rushing the Xbox 360 (red ring of death)
>Shitty Xbox One launch
>Failing to recognize the potential in smartphones
>Windows mobile
Any other points I've forgotten?

He's still better than some pajeet that has a fetish for cloud computing and spying on everyone.
Can't think of a better example
Surely she was an inside plant by google. Noone could have been stupid enough to buy tumblr unless they were malicious.
I'll double it. Nothing beats this guy.

Remember me?
>IA Bad
>Humans taskforce Good
Mandatory
Well he's shitty too
>fuck him for not get into the smartphone game
>wow fuck him for getting into the smartphone game
As expected from a dumb hater. Ballmer is based
Execution of windows mobile was so shit that it almost drowned a few other companies along the way (Nokia)
He had a plan with the Nokia acquisition and Windows Phone 8.1 was going strong at that time but Pootella shut it down after he took over
his greatest sin was not actually understanding shit about tech and let this monkey roam free
dude nutella is the best CEO out there currently, i don't care if he shat in front of my house i'd still respect him
wait i'm on Jow Forums not Jow Forums wtf abbandon ship
This tard.
Haha yeah who doesn't love clouds and ads?
The Kin was such a massive failure nobody even remembers it but they spent billions on it

at the tike she took office yahoo was pretty much dead anyway
He's a successful corporate assassin to ease company assets into hostile takeovers though.
Carly Fiorina
>Windows 8
Win 8.1 is currently the best desktop OS though.
And his successor is even worse.
Can we add this guy to the list? He managed to crash company stocks almost by half in 5 days.
I nominate lisa su as best tech C-office person in 2018, and Tim Cook as the worst:
>momma su
>high-level engineering resume
>well-spoken, good presentations
>turned around a company that spent the last 15 years being a parody of Intel
>tim cook
>who the fuck knows
>2 is 2 times bigger than 1
>turned apple into a parody of itself
I'm not a fan of his presentation, nor his company's tactics, but at least he presents himself well. Ballmer seemed like he actively tried to make a fool of himself at all times.
>at the tike she took office yahoo was pretty much dead anyway
yahoo was not dead at all, it was worth $40B when Marissa got it and she trashed it and it got sold for $5B
very typical of Silicon Valley execs to give lame ass excuses for their failures
He signed my copy of Windows 7.
just imagine how good would smartphones be today if microsoft sacked him in time
Literally no one. Which is why Microsoft is the strongest it's been in like a decade. Whether YOU like him or not he's leading Microsoft towards a sustainable future
> Ballmer
> Xbox
And no.
>shitting on based Balmer
Fucking Zoomers are the worst. Be thankful Balmer isn't reading this thread OP. He would hunt you down and throw a chair at you for your insolence.
>nutella is the best CEO
>operating systems sold as a service

You know this guy loves linux right?
Kys, retard.
before he stepped down i would've said Larry Ellison. how the fuck do you do that to your own company. what a dumbass.
Had to hire sega engineers to design their controller and get xbox OG up and running
What about femceo of some $1B startup that happened to be snake oil and their stocks went to 0 in a day?
Don't forget shitting on linux, only to go back on his word a decade later.
