    Sucks for Mikey Dell, now he has to go and undo the mess Dell is in after losing market share to HP. He's got his work cut out. But hey, he's been there before I guess.

    Actually, I'd rather see Gates leave MS and watch as it goesa bankrupt. Perhaps someone can actually then develop an operating system that requires less time maintaining it than working on it.


    Anyways, Dell's successor couldn't handle the company, so they have to bring Dell back. Job's successor couldn’t handle Apple either so they had to being Jobs back too. Obviously these successors leave a lot to be desired and it will be interesting to see what happens when all of the first-generation (founders) Silicon Valley executives permanently retire. A temporary computer Dark Age maybe?
