I have a good friend whose father works at HP (printer div.) for 15 years plus and his two comments were:

"she seems to have done a good job at making a profit ... for herself"
 and

"I do not know of a single HP person that has had anything good to say about her."

That last comment, to me, is telling.

Anyone have a copy of my old rant on Carly?  I can't seem to find it
in my email archives.
