Larry Ellison Rips HP Board a New One
theodp writes "No stranger himself to sexual harassment allegations, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison has denounced HP's directors for forcing the resignation of HP CEO Mark Hurd. 'The HP board just made the worst personnel decision since the idiots on the Apple board fired Steve Jobs many years ago,' Ellison wrote. For now, it seems that Rupert Murdoch is also standing by Hurd, who sits on News Corp's Board of Directors and its Corporate Governance Committee. Less likely to survive the scandal is Hurd's relationship with HP General Counsel Mike Holston, who accepted Hurd's signed separation agreement after leading an investigation into Hurd's actions, which Holston told the NY Times 'showed a profound lack of judgment.' Quite a change from just last year, when Hurd and Holston teamed up to get their daughters' elite prep school a state-of-the-art HP Data Center."
No stranger himself to sexual harassment allegations, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison
I heard Larry Ellison keeps the sexual harassment forms in the bottom drawer of his desk. That way when a woman goes to get one he can check out her ass.

Trolling is a art,
With so many senior tech company staff quitting or being fired in the past few weeks, I must conclude that there is a connection. The Earth is doomed, and these individuals have been chosen to be part of the secret task-force designing the space craft that will whisk the rich and influential away to live on another planet.
No kidding!!! What do you say at this point?
How many times do we have to say it people? It's GNU/Hurd!
Society never finds equilibrium. It merely heads to the state with the lowest energy and the highest entropy.
Which could be outdone if California elects Carly senator.
Playing grab ass with some aging wannabe starlet who makes a living by flashing her tits is extraordinarily bad judgment even if he weren't married. Hiding $20K in his expense account to do it - especially at his income level - is even stupider.
He got what he deserved, even if he never managed to get in her pants.
Severance Pay: $40M Not having to live through the consequences of accidently buying a behind the curve smartphone manufacturer, and having your CEO buddies think you were booted for sexy stuff: Priceless.

So ... I'm unclear on this. What are your feelings about the POTUS taking an emergency pee break in your cola at the fast food restaurant?

He should have said that he thought this was the worst train of thought since his crazy idea of network computers replacing desktops in the mid 90's.
Did you know 80 to 90% of the moderators on slashdot wouldn't recognize a troll even if one dragged them under a bridge.
That's "ridiculous strawperson".
