First of all, Mr. Ballmer was shouting pretty loud, and that’s terribly impolite. His all line of answer was about mocking the competitor (Apple, in this case) with an eery smile between sarcastic and frightened. It’s really an old technique of blabbers like him: undermining the competitors’ value, and pretending it doesn’t pose a threat at all.
