Uh… yes it was unless you totally want to discount the dotcom bubble.

Which would be stupid.

As for his tenure with MS in charge of Office; that coincided with its highest sales volumes ever. But, hey, keep on cherry picking facts if it makes you happy.

“And now it is clear that Nokia growth was with N9 and MeeGo”

Since its sales rate is even worse than the Lumia then, no, it isn’t.

Watch the rest of the video on how his first statement contradicts the next statement.

5:08 “… but all of that being said, there will be substantial reductions in employment in various locations around the world, and that, too, will affect Finland, no ambiguity about that …”

In one sit down, he managed to contradict and lie about his statements. What a guy!

Of course looking at current stock prices and the calamitous dip thusly associated, that may not be the case in another 2 years or so, but I would like to make sure I take the time out today to reaffirm that in spite of the negativity surrounding Nokia’s fans, decisions and future, we will be there to cover it, provide tips, ideas, showcase devices and on occasion the odd leak (of course now less likely due to Microsoft’s involvement). We will be here and we hope that you all, in spite of whatever slights you feel you may have suffered, will be here with us too.

For the sake of that goal, I am offering my PoV, criticism and my opinion, should they choose to listen to it. No emotions whatsoever, especially not strong ones that in a normal, healthy person should be restricted to at least living beings that can actually respond to those.

Not that I’m saying that formal education is the main prerequisite for being successful, but it is not me who praised his non-existent `PhDs`. As for the experience, again, you’re assuming way too much about both his, and the experience of people posting on MNB. If you look in Elop’s biography you’ll see that he got his experience from Boston Chicken (infamous for fixing their books to appear solvent – kind of like Greece – until they were finally called on it, and as a result their share price crashed incredible 97%! within a week, record-breaking at the time – more @ http://tinyurl.com/dwr8 ), Macromedia (threatened the Adobe’s monopoly in graphics solutions, especially on the vastly expanding internet – as a result sold to the said Adobe, while Elop was a CEO, who killed all the competing products, and kept the part that makes half of Adobe’s revenue today – and no, despite Mark’s mostly empty claim above, Macromedia wasn’t in even a remotely bad shape to be fit only for acquisition), Juniper Networks (they had the biggest problems during his stay with them), Microsoft (directly responsible for Microsoft Office package for Symbian that we got in 2009; oh wait, we didn’t) and finally Nokia (truly a record breaking brand, and any other measurable value caused directly by him). Some experience, I say…
