I wouldn't say Ballmer isn't to blame, it's probably a half-and-half situation. There's so many stories of back-stabbing and politics taking precedence over great products that it's no surprise the company has completely stagnated. On the Ballmer front it is telling that the stock price hasn't grown since Gates stepped down, but it's impossible to prove if that's correlation or causation.
