I agree there is profoundly something wrong if Microsoft uses executive recruitment firm. This company has 100,000 employees with significant filtering in hiring and even more filters in climbing up the ladder. If no one from 100,000 people within Microsoft is deemed to be worthy of leading it then its yet another fail from Ballmer's part.

Even if there is a capable person inside the company, it still makes sense to also look externally. A fresh take on things. In fact, I'd argue they'd be crazy if they didn't at least look outside the company.
