Steve Ballmer last week presented an interesting plan to kill Android — or at least compete with it. What’s ironic is that Ballmer’s tenure at Microsoft wasn’t short of good ideas — it was short on execution. In contrast, Satya Nadella has shown strength in execution but — so far — hasn’t come up with anything that represents the kind of risks that Ballmer was willing to take. It kind of makes me wonder what would happen if the two men partnered for Microsoft’s future.
