Ballmer Scores a Fusion Hybrid From Ford CEO

Today over in Redmond, Ford CEO Alan Mulally handed Steve Ballmer the keys to a light blue metallic Ford Fusion Hybrid not coincidentally rigged up with Microsoft’s Sync system. Unfortunately, at that moment, I was too far off to hear what they were saying. Any guesses?


Update: Our friend Todd at TechFlash just posted a longer piece from the same event, in case you want to hear Ballmer and Mulally mulling over the future of cars and tech. (Hint: They will coexist profitably.)

    Ballmer: We are both really powerful guys with a lot of money. What are we doing in a Ford Fusion?
    Mullaly: Well, I’m sure you’re aware that I can’t use the company jet anymore after what you guys did in Washington. So, I figured the Ford Fusion would give me good street cred.
