Ballmer "Pumped Up" About Windows XP

WinInfo | at | by Mike

In an email address to employees Monday, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said that he is "pumped up about Windows XP," the OS the company will release this October. Ballmer, who has historically been the hyper-enthusiastic counterpart to Bill Gates' more somber persona, has made a habit of routinely sending inspirational messages to employees ever since he took over the top spot at the company. This week's missive is clearly designed to get Microsoft's workforce behind their latest OS push, in a grass roots way that is interesting for a company this size.
