Very cool because she can be CEO one day of Microsoft. Anything is better than Steve Balder at the helm.
On another note: she looks very hot in the first picture in the story. Then I click the image and then she's appears to be a cougar so nothing to write home. Then Tom's infamous 2 clicks to get to the real image: freckles everywhere on her face. From hot to freckles........ It's not relevant to her position, i'm just saying.

i initially read "CEO" and smiled.. "finally balmer's gone" then read correctly.. oh well..

I've long been thinking Microsoft needs to replace a certain C-level exec, and I didn't have the CFO in mind...
BTW, I don't claim to know anything about corporate accounting, but 41 strikes me as awfully young, for such a big company.

But still I'd marry her.

Why should a care? Some woman is now a chief financial officer...so what? I do not care what gender she is, as long as she does it good fine by me. Maybe I have moved passed being sexist but I really do not care.

Okay, I see some people disagree with me. Assuming the Balmer fan club consistes of no more than 1 person, it must be the comment about 41 being young.
Alrighty, then. How long do you think it should take for someone to gain all the relevant experience and knowledge competantly perform as the head of accounting in one of the top, publically traded companies in the world? One in a fair bit of stormy waters, no less. And don't forget that qualified applicants will surely need to spend a few extra years in school, to get a MBA.
