You're not kiddin'! Carly Fiorina's main qualifying attributes seemed to be
her degree in history (!) and the idea that she was, at one time, almost attractive.
Meg Whitman is at least an intelligent person. I think she has a chance at doing some
good IF she breaks with American CEO tradition and listens to people who know how the
business really works and take their advice. I think she'd do well in the execution
but probably not the overall steering.

Ebay was, and is, a monopoly. They are pretty easy to run. Before that she was an
executive dealing with kids and toy products. We'll see. I see nothing in her resume
that would make me think she can turn around HP. Already they've flip flopped on
killing of the PC division and then not killing it off in the same week. Killing off webos
or not. Maybe she is just there to wind it down. I could see that. She is fully qualified
to gracefully shut down a company without causing a lot of ripples in the market.
