Microsoft's Not So Happy Family

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the managers-doing-their-jobs-asking-a-bit-much dept.

D.A. Zollinger writes "Reports from Redmond are that Microsoft Employees are not happy with the double delay of Windows and Office being pushed back into 2007. EETimes is reporting that some Microsoft employees are calling for the termination of several top managers Including Brian Valentine, Jim Allchin, and Steve Ballmer for the delay debacle. The report references a blog by Who da'Punk, an anonymous Microsoft employee who asks, where's the accountability for failure? So far the blog entry has generated over 350 comments from Microsoft insiders and outsiders."

    They could do what apple did and leech off of the freebsd developers but somehow I don't think they will. There are too many egos tied up in windows. It would be a humuliation to both gates and balmer.
