Oh, yeah, saw this two days ago. Funny.

When he duck behind the desk, he looked like a 10 yr old school girl. His facial expression was priceless.

the student next to the thrower has to lift his MacBook out of the way to let the protestor out. Hope Ballmer didn't see it. Would have upset him more than the egg!

Something about how Ballmer and Microsoft have billions upon billions of dollars, and not using it to help people.

Well, I think Ballmer handled himself pretty well actually. The student or whatever was just a prick.

Nah, I'm sure Ballmer would have appreciated a kindred soul.

As a poster on that thread noted. That MacBook belonged to a previous speaker, not Ballmer. No way would he be seen using a Mac in public. The PR fallout would be too massive. Also, he really doesn't like Apple and is on record as saying he wouldn't let his kids have a ipod.
