Only a whole bunch of non-stockholders would assume that Microsoft was behind it. Top year was 2007. Last good year... been a decline since.
Elop came onboard in last part of 2010.
Start there, while you're at it.

Edit:
Another Anagram for his own name:
Pee Helps Not

And how 11 years later, they grew to be the biggest cellphone manufacturer, had their best year(s)... and the decline came as other companies rose - Google, Apple, RIM, cheap Chinese phones.
Not picking a fight, but all I see is flawed logic unless you prove something.
