blog, Ballmer, who is 58 today, said that he was not sure how long he will remain a Microsoft director. And he will figure out his next challenge after his retirement from the software titan:

“It really as much as anything depends on how I see rest of my life playing out. I have a chance to really think.”
Which is just another way of saying that he is aware he does not factor or feature into what Microsoft is planning next. The board is okay with his exit, even though the man himself was pretty bullish about keeping his seat as the second biggest individual shareholder. In fact, he also reveals how he was uncharacteristically quiet during the company’s recent meetings a few weeks back, explaining that he did not talk like he did when he was CEO — the chirpy old Ballmer. Steve Ballmer also praised his replacement, saying that Satya Nadella is doing a great job.]]>
