Pretty funny, but it sounds more like journalistic oversimplification than anything else.

The idea that this problem just snuck up on Nokia is certainly damming. What did Elop's precursors think they were going to do after Symbian ran out of gas?

I recently watched Giant in honor of Elizabeth Taylor, and this reminds me of Rock Hudson defiantly vowing to stick to cattle while oil gushers were exploding on neighboring ranches. Now Nokia has a lot of dying cattle and its rivals have all struck oil.
