Did that include having secret negotiations with Steve Ballmer that the board was unaware of? For a true accounting of what really happened you can find it all in Operation Elop.

Thanks for the link,

If the board hadn't had such bonus (24. The bonus brouhaha boils over) as Helsingin Sanomat discovered, the outcome would be much different.

As someone that used to know the Espoo HQ from inside, Microsoft is not the one I blame.
