I'm starting to see a pattern in the leadership of HP.
They appoint somebody who seems to be "safe" and then they go batshit within about 8 months. Every time. Quicker if you happen to be Leo Apotheker.
I can't even blame them anymore. It looks to me like Carly Fiorina left the company as a huge poisoned chalice, a root of infection that just won't go away. All we can do is watch it eat itself away and destroy people who might have been perfectly sane and maybe even competent if only they worked somewhere else.
