There's going to be small and short term negative effect, but long term the economy will be much better off, once all those people will start doing something constructive in properly managed businesess and organizations.

No need for Microsoft to buy it.
I can tell you that Elop is not a very popular guy in Finland right now. 10000 people will lose their jobs.
nope, he didnt sell it for $0 . in an interview he said that they were paying microsoft a royality for wp7 and also swapping ip rights. so in fact he PAID microsoft to take it all.
microsolft got paid to take nokias software. ballmer said it wasnt an exclusive relationship. so HTC et al now get all nokias software too. and nokia paid microsoft for this.
