I read a lot of angst and, general visceral observations on the
alliance. However, I've a question to ask - since there's not enough
data available in public that provides support for Nokia's decision
(and please, let's not use the current CEO's ex-employer as a 'data
point') should this list involve itself in conjecture and hypothesis ?
Both companies have fairly strong boards, a large employee base and, a
large, active shareholder base - a decision of this nature actually
ends up being discussed with a few of those constituents.

As a side note, the age of social media has thrown up an interesting
challenge - image the psychological stress of being an employee at
either of these companies (or, the companies in Open Source that Nokia
heavily invested in) when you see/read your company as a 'trend' and,
being ripped apart on a global scale.
