The point is that we really don't know what was going on behind the curtains, and what numbers they truly had, read and acted upon. I suspect that the numbers were bad, and board approved Elop's burning platform. In retrospect, the burning platform letter was stupid, but he was following 101 business school class to align everyone in new direction, by telling the people where they were going. We can be armchair quarterbacks here, but we dont have all the info that made the board hire Elop and give him permission to burn the platform.

Yes, but thats not an argument for endusers. Endusers doesnt give a **** as long there is apps. And the company is hyped they buy theyr products.
So even if WP is crap people MAY buy it. But question still remains if Nokia will win on the deal. Because I am sure samsung and other will leave Google in the longer run especially if Google continues to shooting itself in the foot buy selling Nexus too lowpriced. That may piss samsung and others of and they will go back to Microshit WP/W8 instead. Wish also will hurt stupid Nokia ofcourse...

I guess it doesn't if you don't want an open platform and I'm not about to argue that the mass market does because I agree that they don't, but I have to ask, why did you link to Akademy and claim it's no more open than "microshit (sic)"?

As you keep saying the stock market doesn't matter when Nokia's share was going down why announce with a double big smiley when the share rise? Could it be you don't believe the "wisdom" you keep trying to push down our throats?

I already made it clear, but I'll repeat it for you. Being concise is a gift some people have and they use it to make a clear point. He did not make clear what exactly was contradictory in the texts, he repeated verbatim everything that was posted, even the largely irrelevant parts. Asyndetic thinking is not good for making a point and that post was full of it.
That blog post is very poorly written and structured, it does itself no favours in getting a point across, making it difficult to follow the writers thought process. I do not care for the poorly written English either, just that it be better than a verbose copy of everything said in a blog with something akin to "do you see it? the guys an idiot" appended inbetween. Spare me with the "makes perfect sense", "what's so hard" nonsense. Not that I care about what Tomi said or did but if you you wish to write in a more concise, better structured manner where the contradiction or disagreement lays with the author then I'll gladly read it too.
