I don't think so. Especially long-term.

And if you buy Nokia crap, you're going to validate Elop's decisions (especially since there's clearly not going to be very many N9's and the alternatives are all Windows Phone 7 phones)--which ALSO means no possibility whatsoever of a return to a Linux-based OS in the future. Lose-lose.

I say, let them learn what Elop's done--and hope they turn around the fire the ***** in a desperate attempt to gain back what they've lost. THAT might have a chance.

Sometimes the Captain doesn't actually go down with his ship. I'm sure Elop will do fine when Nokia finally goes under. Don't worry about him.
