Windows 8 is the torpedo that sunk Steve Ballmer, the headlines have been screaming. The news we were all expecting finally arrived last Friday with the announcement that Steve Ballmer would step down as Microsoft’s CEO.

If the company gets this right, it can return to a successful growth track. If not, it will continue to struggle and flounder as it is doing today.
