ONE month ago we wrote about the Elop scandal which got Microsoft shareholders furious. Well, Microsoft -- probably realising that it had a true scandal in its hands -- seems to decided to correct things. Only the Seattle press seems to have covered this though.
Complaints arose after Microsoft disclosed in a September proxy that it took a bath on real estate deals made to recruit Business Division President Stephen Elop. Relocating him to Redmond cost $4.1 million in part because Microsoft covered the loss Elop took when he sold his California home.
