The approach isn’t what became a joke, it was the absolutely unhinged way in which it was presented in that famous Ballmer stage appearance.
I'd take that any day over the unhinged AI focus from all these companies now or Google's awful documentation from the past few years.
Oh sure, it was crazy. But the sentiment behind it was good. It's like how Howard Dean got dunked on for his scream.
