Sorry, this particular story was not sufficiently interesting to me to read it. However, the comment about executive moves in general not being of interest is not always valid. For example, this person's exit caused Red Hat's stock to drop very significantly in price upon his announcement of his intended exit. I thought the response was overblown and RH stock price probably inflated. What caught my interest was a story on MS that had a misleading title, but whose content was somewhat disturbing: the hiring of former Linux company executives that had been very successful in pushing Linux. Those are significant moves that we should be cognizant of MS moves and intentions.
