DS, Do you know where Dutkowsky is going? I was wondering why he took the move to DG when it was announced following the acquisition. See below:
EMC's Data General division chief resigns

EMC Corp. said Robert M. Dutkowsky resigned as president of its Data General division, six months after EMC purchased the Westborough-based computer company. He will be replaced by Joel Schwartz, formerly Data General Corp.'s general manager.
EMC, the maker of data-storage products in Hopkinton, said Dutkowsky quit to become chief executive of another public company, which it wouldn't name. Dutkowsky wasn't available for comment, EMC said.
EMC's Data General unit employs about 3,000 people who develop and sell server computers to corporate customers. Data General's other main product line, midrange data-storage devices, has been merged into other EMC divisions.
Dutkowsky once was a rising star at EMC, which he joined from IBM Corp. in 1997, and had been executive vice president for marketing and channels. But he took a pay cut and ceased to be an executive officer when he was tapped to lead the Data General division last October, after EMC bought it for about $1 billion in stock.
Now Schwartz, 57, a 10-year Data General veteran, will report to Joseph M. Tucci, EMC's president and chief operating officer. EMC's shares rose $6.50 to $133.
Best,
