"Eric Schmidt, the computer scientist who is chief executive of Google"

Hmmmm...previously CTO at Sun, then left for an unimpressive stint as CEO of Novell (while John Young was Chairman of Novell's Board...previously CEO of HP). Probably not a lot of love lost between Eric and HP (or Intel)...but I'm sure that would not cloud his judgement! ;-)

Schmidt has served as chairman and CEO of Novell, Inc. (NASDAQ: NOVL) since 1997, where he led the company's strategic planning, management, and technology development. He recently left his post as Novell's CEO, but remains Novell's chairman of the board.

Prior to his appointment at Novell, Schmidt was chief technology officer and corporate executive officer at Sun Microsystems, Inc., where he led the development of Java, Sun's platform-independent programming technology, and defined Sun's Internet software strategy. Before joining Sun in 1983, Schmidt was a member of the research staff at the Computer Science Lab at Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC), and held positions at Bell Laboratories and Zilog. Schmidt has a B.S. in electrical engineering from Princeton University, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of California-Berkeley.
