Microsoft's $10 billion must have bought out the Qt's "next billion".

You can never trust a company doing layoffs. They will lie for business 
continuity. I find the whole process of layoffs rather appalling. If the 
companies really cared, they'd pick out your next employment or at least set 
you up with interviews. Budgetary constraints on part of the business are 
unavoidable but should not result in workers being left high and dry.

And Nokia did and continues to do. But decisions are not forever. That one 
lasted, apparently, 15 months.
