Fantastic score for @MagicLeap, but this will undoubtedly be a tougher job for Peggy Johnson than what she dealt with at @Microsoft or @Qualcomm -> Microsoft exec Peggy Johnson joins troubled augmented reality start-up Magic Leap as CEO https://t.co/MARJX3SJ1q #AR #VR $MSFT pic.twitter.com/ipdItWYnfi

Big contrast between @microsoft's response to @PeggyJ's departure for @magicleap and @amazon's response to @IsForAt's departure for @googlecloud. Microsoft has come a long way since @kaifulee, apparently. https://t.co/ec1SVv0luP https://t.co/7oBq3jQYML https://t.co/rKQCkfmd6w
