Greene's Beau Leaves VMware
There must have been some interesting dinner conversation after Diane Greene
was fired as CEO of VMware while her husband and co-founder, Mendel Rosenblum,
stayed on as chief scientist. Now, on the eve of VMworld,
Rosenblum
has left the company, as well.
My guess is that Rosenblum's departure was only a matter of time. I think he
was mentally ready to leave after his wife was ousted, but out of loyalty to
his troops he stayed on to ease the transition.
The couple made many millions, but neither seems like the type to drift off
into the sunset on a 250-foot yacht. What would you like to see from this dynamic
duo? Suggestions welcome at [email protected].
