The timing was auspicious since companies like Worldcom, Qwest, and Global Crossing were in the process of laying fiber optic cables around the country and the world.

I lost a six figure investment in global crossing while, terry mcawful, now gubbernator of virginia {the thief should be in jail} made 20 million using insider info.

The only thing that made carly into a CEO was her lack of a visible appendage.

If she wasn't a woman, and had her track record at Lucent, NFW, she would have been selected as CEO at HP.

I competed with HP for years, beat them most of the time, as their stuff was average, the people were not risk takers, and management was more like government than high tech business people.

They lost more deals because they were too slow to react to the situation and she was a large part of it.

My friends from Silicon Valley said she was a bitch to work for and almost impossible to work with {from a vendors prospective}.

I never crossed paths with her directly, so it's all hear/say.

interesting perspective. I think if she is going to run on nothing but her business record, that record needs some serious scrutiny and once you start looking at it, it doesn’t look like much of a record to me.
