	Hewlett-Packard Targeted Board In Leak Probe - September 5, 2006
		In a blistering letter to the computer firm's directors, Thomas Perkins wrote that he quit the HP board in protest of the "questionable ethics and the dubious legality" of methods employed during the "sub-rosa" leak investigation ordered by board chairman Patricia Dunn.
		According to Perkins, a partner in one of Silicon Valley's leading venture capital firms, the Fortune 500 company's probe included the "fraudulent method" of obtaining the "private telephone records" of board members.
		In his letter, Perkins contended that his own phone records were "hacked" as part of Hewlett-Packard's attempt to discern the source for a January 2006 Cnet.com story about the firm's long-term strategy.

	What I Really Want to Say: Tom Perkins is the Real Face of Silicon Valley
		No, the real story, the one that matters, is the tale of how Tom Perkins put his personal reputation, which he surely knew would come under attack, on the line to unmask behavior that he thought was wrong.
		Perkins to do would have been to look the other way and sweep the matter under the rug, as it appears everyone else in the know at H-P was apparently willing to do.
		Instead, when Perkins was confronted with evidence of wrong-doing he resigned immediately, disassociated himself from the conduct and then did everything he could within the rules to bring the law-breaking to light.

		Perkins was unavailable for comment but issued a statement through his lawyer.
		She was one of the board members who hired Fiorina in 1999, but Dunn became disillusioned after years of lackluster stock performance and, in December 2004, wrote a four-page report to Fiorina detailing her concerns.
