"You're just 3 years old, and we've got you in there playing basketball with a 12-year-old," Ballmer gushed and gesticulated, nearly popping out of his seat. "You're growing up quick and getting better every day, and you've got all the potential in world, and it may take you 'til you're 7, 8, 9 or 10, but you're gonna dunk and you're gonna dunk on the other guy some day, Johnny."

I have no idea what that means, because I don't know anything about basketball, but I'm guessing he is claiming seniority wins.

Perhaps he's forgotten Microsoft vs IBM...
