HP chair Dunn is gone. Out. Resignation effective immediately.
Hewlett-Packard CEO Mark Hurd, now under suspicion for cooperating with chairwoman Patricia Dunn's investigations of board members and reporters, is now the chairman of HP, he announced today. Dunn has resigned from the board — a move that was inevitable eventually, but few thought would happen while the scandal was still fresh in the media.
Now Hurd needs to fend off accusations of his own involvement. So far, all that's been implied by public evidence is that Hurd knew some of what Dunn was doing, not that he was actually involved.
