"In January 2000 Bill Gates gave his responsibilities and the title chief executive officer of Microsoft to his best friend, Steve Ballmer, who had been at Gates's side almost since the company's earliest days. The news sent shock waves throughout the technology and computer worlds, making many people wonder about the man who was now entrusted with Bill Gates's baby.".
"The life of Steve Ballmer is an incredible story of tremendous ambition, genius, arrogance, and charisma, an up-by-the-bootstraps saga of how the only child of a Swiss immigrant grew up in suburban Michigan and became the fourth wealthiest American while working for someone else.
Bad Boy Ballmer also reveals a man so arrogant that after the Department of Justice filed its antitrust suit against Microsoft, Ballmer stood onstage in San Jose and proclaimed "to hell with Janet Reno," a man so intense and aggressive that he once ripped his vocal cords by yelling too loudly."--BOOK JACKET.

Work Description
An incredible story of tremendous ambition, genius, arrogance, and charisma -- an up-by-the-bootstraps saga of the man to whom Bill Gates gave his responsibilities and the title chief executive officer of Microsoft: Steve Ballmer, a man so intense and aggressive that he once ripped his vocal cords by yelling too loudly. Eye-opening and thorough, Bad Boy Ballmer is a revealing look at one of the masterminds of the technological age. In January 2000 Bill Gates gave his responsibilities and the title chief executive officer of Microsoft to his best friend, Steve Ballmer, who had been at Gates's side almost since the company's earliest days. The news sent shock waves throughout the technology and computer worlds, making many people wonder about the man who was now entrusted with Bill Gates's baby.
