Herb , JC may still be a serious CEO contender

It looks complex . There are two zeck positions open , CEO and exec (Mktg) VP with a COB as "interim" CEO , and a promised snail mail share awarding proxy with a annual report .

Sculley's IBM interview was about 5 years ago and pure "Pepsi Generation" . It was set by the same search firm and attended by 3 IBM Board members .

Details leaked out later but it started with the question "What would you do to improve IBM ?" Sculley answered and L. Gerstner was hired .

There were more negatives to it including criticism of owning "his AAPL jet" , which he flew to the interview .

It is interesting to me that AAPL's largest shareholder Mike Markkulla sells and maintains planes - wonder if greedy Gil was a customer ?

Opps I'm slipping into "irrelevant memories" - 3/18/98 looks to be a banner day for AAPL .
