"...how much can one person really control a company?"
Swap "control" with "lead", and you've got a valid question. Leadership is job #1 for a CEO. You must have the confidence of your employees if you want to lead. I can't understand how anyone could have confidence in Ballmer at this point. He's called it so incredibly wrong in so many cases.
I'm not saying that Microsoft should adjust their business strategy to match that of their competitors, but Ballmer just so completely misunderstands his competitor's successes that I can't see how he can be expected to formulate a counter-strategy. Not only was he wrong, but he was utterly confident in his assessment. How does a guy like that lead anyone who has a clue?
