Microsoft held its annual shareholders' meeting in Redmond yesterday, where the company’s boss Steve Ballmer once again rejected the idea – first touted by Goldman Sachs – to split the software vendor up.
"I obviously don’t think it is time,” he told shareholders, according to Todd Bishop at TechFlash.
“I don’t think it would be useful. I think it creates economic dis-synergies, in fact. It’s not in my natural genetic makeup to think that way but when you get enough people telling you to think that way, you at least go through the proper, disciplined look and in almost all cases, the market goes the other way.”
