For what it's worth I don't believe Barett is 'bad' at what he does. He's just not Andy Grove.

Steve,

I don't think its just that....I get the sense the chip business does not turn Barret on; that he prefers internet stuff and relegates the handling of the chip business to others. In addition I have been struck by his absence during CC's.

You don't have to be A. Grove to be good but you do have to be involved......I don't think Barret is very hands on. Having said that, the poor planning may not be his fault since I am not sure when he became President.
