Wow Steve Ballmer is at it again, he is spitting fire and brimstone on his latest attack on apple, claiming they will leave no stone unturned in their attack on Apple.

Full story at Forbes is it just me, or does everybody else think this guy is a total looney :whistle:

Come on 20K

I bought myself an iPad for my birthday a few weeks ago. Not sure what Microsoft could do to make me buy something other than an iPad next time. It would have to be something pretty special though.

Yeah, well the Windows Phone is doing great guns. I think the Surface will do great in the corporate space, but I still thinking they're doing Windows RT all wrong. Why didn't they just do what Apple have done - a mobile OS and a desktop OS that also runs on tablets. I think the Surface Pro will actually do well in corporate environments, but consumers are just going to get confused. They've got Windows Phone, Windows RT and Windows 8. And I bet 8 comes in at least 3 flavours as well.
