>> Del just danced around the question. He did say that for Apple to attract a quality CEO Jobs AND Ellison would have to step aside. Was that him broadcasting to Apple the terms of him coming to work there?? A friend of mind said that he heard on some business news program today that Lee Iacoca was being considered for the job. What a fit that would be...<g> Richard Stevens

<<He said hardware was the place to be in the 80's, software is the place to be in the 90's and Borland is software. The interviewer then said, so you are saying that you are not interested in the APPL CEO position? Del just danced around the question. >> This could mean that if he does become the CEO of Apple, the first thing he would do is a Dr. Kervorkian on the Apple hardware business (sell it off, write it off, fire engineers, etc.) and become a pure software house. Of course, I conjecture condition #1 for him to become CEO is for Steve Jobs, friends et. al (such as Larry Ellison) to take a hike.
