	Mark Hurd played bigger role in Hewlett-Packard pretexting scandal, New Yorker says - Vindu’s View from the ... (Site not responding. Last check: )
		But Mark Hurd still owes us a fuller explanation about his role, especially after the hefty bonus HP gave him for his work last year.
		And the inquiry was ongoing before Hurd arrived, not that shields him from some blame, but Dunn is her own worst emeny and to think she was in charge at Barclays.
		Hurd was more in the loop, the problem is whether his performance at HP so much better than Carley, who rewrites history in her book, seems to be less than outright factual in his statements on the issue.

	HP CEO Mark Hurd's Challenge: Cut Costs, Not Innovation - Technology News by InformationWeek
		As Mark Hurd prepares to take over as Hewlett-Packard Co.'s sixth CEO in its 66-year history tomorrow, he'll face the two-fold challenge of clamping down on costs while leaving HP's vaunted research-and-development teams free to innovate.
		Hurd was known as a cost-cutter during his two-year tenure as CEO of NCR Corp., which he left this week to take the top HP job.
		Still, the pressure is on Hurd: Former HP CEO Carly Fiorina was fired in February for not cutting costs or lifting profits as quickly as investors and the board hoped--and for refusing to share power with an operations executive who could help unravel the company's problems.

	Mark Hurd's Got a Lot to Say
		After the markets close, HP CEO Mark Hurd is scheduled to lead a press conference to address the case, which so far has grabbed the attention of Congress, the California and U.S. Attorney General's offices, and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
		But e-mails between senior HP officials indicate Hurd was told, in some level of detail that's not clear, of the progress of HP's investigation of its board members and snooping on the press.
		Hurd was not a sender or recipient of any of the e-mails, according the paper, but there are references to the CEO approving various actions taken by the outside investigators.

	Failures: Management: Mark Hurd's @ HP
		From the moment she arrived in 1999, Fiorina tried to inspire employees with pleas to help her recapture HP's lost glory, even going so far as to appear in a TV ad standing in front of a mock-up of the garage where HP was founded.
		Hurd has hardly mentioned the so-called HP Way, focusing instead on dreary financial metrics to show where HP comes up short.
		And Hurd is set to pull the trigger on big layoffs, to match the efficiency of rivals such as Dell (DELL).

	Mark Hurd: Mark Hurd too busy running company to run company - Valleywag
		Friends of Mark Hurd pulled off a beautiful spin job explaining to the New York Times why the Hewlett-Packard CEO didn't stop chairwoman Patricia Dunn and a whole team of investigators from digging up reporters' phone records and planning to plant spies at media outlets.
		Hurd failed to ask critical questions about the methods in the leak investigation.
		But some people close to him suggest -- though they do not know for certain -- that he failed to focus on the leak investigation partly because he was focused on getting the company fixed and partly because he regarded the search as the project of Patricia C. Dunn, the chairwoman.

		Hurd reflected on his new job, management philosophy, and plans for HP in two interviews with BusinessWeek Computer Editor Peter Burrows.
