Harold: The fault is not Eric's entirely. Like many Dictators, many Company founders endowed with tunnel vision, surround themselves with "Yes" men. In such cases, top Mgmt is extremely slow to realize their policies are failing and a change of direction is necessary. CS, 5 yrs ago was No 2 in Networking , is a perfect example. In their case,their total committal to Shared media was their downfall.

If the Mgmt team did not share Erics vision they could have protested and resigned. I am not sure that calling for a single resignation will do much if the "YES" team is still intact. If top Mgmt is the problem, then all the Heads that failed to deliver should roll.

That is also the lesson of every great Revolution.
