Five general managers lost in the last two weeks !- Steve Smith, the head of HP's revenue-flat $15.5 billion services business, has unexpectedly resigned, citing personal reasons.
- The head of HP's billion-dollar OpenView business, Todd DeLaughter, has quit to become CEO of Opalis, the Canadian software company.
- HP's channel chief John Thompson has left and Rick Becker, the head of its blade operation, which has been waging hand-to-hand combat with IBM, has been poached by Dell, presumably at the behest of his old boss Brad Anderson, who went to Dell last year as senior VP of its product group. Becker was also CTO of HP's x86 servers. Anderson used to run HP's industry standard servers Smith, DeLaughter and Becker all worked for Ann Livermore, the head of HP's $33 billion technology solutions group, who will temporarily replace Smith until the company comes up with a new body.
- HP had also lost the GM of its Business Critical Systems unit Rich Marcello. He has quit to work for non profit organisations.
