Larry Ellison knowns that those sexual harassment lawsuits are easy enough to beat when you have a top-of-the-line legal team and an unlimited defense budget.

Wow...I guess now is the time to buy!

wish I had some cash...

him to lead HP to a bigger & more profitable company. Now HP, shareholders, employees have to follow the "other leaders"..

HPQ is not alone

Cisco stock plunges 10 percent after CEO sees 'unusual uncertainty'

When Cisco Systems CEO John Chambers speaks, Wall Street listens. And when Chambers becomes cautious about the economic recovery, investors react -- as they did Thursday, causing Cisco's stock to plunge by nearly 10 percent.Web Link


The reality is that we are in a double dip recession---if Iran is attacked we will plunge into a global economic depression.

Had Larry Ellison founded the company, I might care what he thinks.
Fortunately, HP was founded by two men who insisted the company
aspire to the highest ethical standards in the business. The board
was right to let go of Mark Hurd.

The main reason for the current economic slump is relentless whining on Fox News. As Rush Limbaugh says, the easiest way to defeat Obama is to ruin the country then blame it on him.

The whole thing is FISHy. Why would Hurd pay her off and then she sue for sexual harassment? How could Jodie state that she didn't want him fired? There was some planning somewhere along the way. We aren't seeing all the facts. I think she wanted the fame and he wanted out or the Board wanted him ousted and grabbed for anything to get him out.
