[Interest] OT: Big payout for Elop

[Atlant Schmidt]

All:

  Wow! I would have been happy to run Nokia into the ground
  for a mere €10.0m (plus a nice apartment in Helsinki).

  Heck, there's even a fair chance I wouldn't have crashed
  the corporation (or lit the oil rig on fire or anything);
  I would have just dictated a wholesale switch from Symbian
  to Maemo, as fast as the engineers could manage it. That
  probably would have worked out at least as well for Nokia,
  the Nokians, and the shareholders.

  Ahh well, water into the Baltic Sea now...

It seems that this has been attracting some attention.  See, for example,
this CNN article:

   "Elop to Nokia: I won't return my €18.8m pay-off"
   http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/25/business/nokia-elop-return-pay-off-money/index.html
