Ballmer confirms what we all knew: Elop candidate for Microsoft CEO job

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/elop-ballmer-1346872124.jpgFile this one in the “Well, yeah,” department. Stephen Elop may have stepped down from his CEO gig at Nokia, but Microsoft’s former head of its Business Division may still harbor C-level dreams. In an interview with The Seattle Times, Redmond’s soon-to-be-former CEO Steve Ballmer confirmed that Elop is in the running for his gig, stating, “Stephen will go from external [candidate] to internal.” So the personable mobile exec will be keeping his name badge either way – time will tell, of course, which washroom he ultimately gets the key for.
