IT IS THE FRIDAY AFTERNOON before Halloween and The INQUIRER has taken some time out to consider which technology industry leaders it would rather not have hiding in its wardrobe.
We hope you consider the list when deciding on an outfit for your weekend celebrations.
Leo Apotheker
Leo Apotheker, or Leo Apocalypse as we might occasionally refer to him, brought to HP what rats did to London in the 17th Century: panic, confusion and fear.
No sooner had he landed in HP’s top spot than he went about alarming people into thinking that they might lose their jobs, departments that they might lose their reason to exist, and investors that they might lose one of their cash cows.
He’s gone now of course. Exorcised from the firm just weeks before it announced that it was dropping his apparent big plan for the company, dumping its cash producing PC business.
Larry Ellison
At first glance Larry Ellison looks like a Bond villain, and at second glance, and third.
