Whitman's Sisyphean Challenge

[ECTNews]

 Leo Apotheker's short stint as CEO of tech giant HP came to an end Thursday as the board ousted the executive it appointed just one year ago and installed former eBay CEO Meg Whitman in his place. From her first day in office, Whitman will have a lot on her plate. Once a clear tech leader, HP has struggled to keep up with competition, especially in the consumer device division. Troubles since Apotheker took over less than a year ago include a 50-percent dive share value and a dabble in an ill-fated consumer tablet.
