Erm, nice to see that IBM are continuing a mini-trend, after all we also had Meg Whitman recently take over as CEO at HP - another "large company".Quote:
This announcement is seen as big news in the business world, as few women have ever been placed in charge of such a large company.
Don't count myself as a feminist, but I'd like to see women represented more at the top of the business world.
So long as they deserve it. If there's one thing I hate its that "positive discrimination l" bullocks!!Quote:

That said, I'll know that "equality" has been achieved when Scott Adams' pointy-haired boss gets a female version.
As long as she can do the job well as ceo of ibm who cares :) Will wait to see what the shares trends are before i invest though
nice to see. I wonder if there has been any fluctuations in IBM stock? :P
