I don't see why they should. Since no one here pays their salary or pays for a subscription, why should you or me have any say about what they write?

If you don't like it, don't read it.

This all started when political correctness ran amok and Mark Hurd was ousted for a non-scandal.

All I can say is HP owners got what they richly deserved.

Of course the intelligent person realizes it will just make people avoid HP in the future.

Yup, building a business on ink cartridges. Works well for a while, then the rug gets pulled from under you.

Ah well, another day, another golden parachute.

However he does not appear to have succeeded at HP.

IMHO, killing WebOS devices is reason enough to let this CEO go... No vision whatsoever.

Hiring a female CEO is the fastest way to kill your tech company.

Statistical evidence would suggest otherwise.
