Talk:Mark Hurd

message: The following used to be a part of the main article, for some reason:
Sort of the wrong place for this comment so feel free to move it when you have the answer. Can we get some dirt on this guy? It sounds like he's bending the company over and screwing it sideways. We can leave the dirt in the discussion if it ends up being more rumor than verifiable facts. I'm running HP servers at my company and am getting pretty steamed with their cruddy support at the moment. I'm wanting to find out just how bad it's going to get.

message: Removed the following pending review:
Mark Hurd resigned from HP on August 6th, 2010 after an investigation into a sexual-harassment claim made against him and the company by a former HP contractor. The probe concluded that the company's sexual-harassment policy was not violated, but that HP standards of business conduct were violated due to attempts by Mr. Hurd to cover-up expenses related to an alleged personal relationship between Mr. Hurd and the former HP contractor.Connie Guglielmo, HP CEO Mark Hurd Resigns After Sex Harassment Probe, Bloomberg, August 6, 2010
Looking at the sources I don't see support, but I don't have time to review thoroughly right now. BE——Critical__Talk 21:46, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

message: Despite negative personal opinions editors might have about Hurd, from the perspective of shareholders and some other stakeholders, he was involved in HP's recovery from Carly, and other successes.  Would a separate heading, or sub-heading under HP be appropriate?  Thanks for your opinions. --Moon Rising (talk) 19:32, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

text: He was responsible? Or the hundredthousands people working for HP and spending most time of their lifes to gather money for the firm? Think about that once...I say: Hurd did nothing except holding some nice meetings and being at the right place at the right time: the internet boom. CEO's are usuale salesmen, not knowing how a computer works, and not being able to engineer any computer. It's still a riddle why they earn most of the money and not the engineers. However, some engineers earned some money, too, but with their own firms: Jobs, Gates, Zuckerberg to name a few. These are the great people, not salesmen like Hurd, because salesmen are just an inevitable necessity to become successful in business. But they change neither the world nor how computers will work in the future. And they can be exchanged like you exchange your furniture at home. --178.197.232.41 (talk) 21:04, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

message: I’ve noticed there have been several recent changes to Mark Hurd’s title in the article and the infobox. Judging by his corporate biography and several reputable news sources, his official title is CEO. I’ve reverted changes back to his title as noted above.

message: It has been confirmed in a company-wide email today that Mark Hurd has passed away early on the morning of the 18th.  Official notices and publications are still pending, but has been confirmed by Larry Ellison himself.  Those edits made for the death were indeed correct.
