rudedog. Re: "I don't see the COO as really adding another layer" I see your point. The COO could be part of the new Office of the CEO. Of course, that would mean that Rose would not be part of that group. And he could have said sayonara.

These changes, along with all the others, indicate that the board was not happy with almost the entire top management group, for one reason or another. If there was "bad blood" due to internecine fighting or just lack of confidence by the board, this could be good news for the managers right below the top. Hopefully, they are up to the task.

Re: "I also heard that EP might be under consideration for that slot." I wonder. Would EP would "fit" with the HP culture? Also, with all the bad publicity about EP's downfall and the poor relations between EP and the Wall St. community, his appointment could be a mixed blessing for HP.
