Meg Whitman Prediction: From Advocates of Quitting

January 15, 2016

I love predictions. Most folks forget the ones which do not materialize. The others get a moment of Internet fame and then die like day lilies.,

I read an interesting chunk of prognosticative fluff in “Meg Whitman Will Leave HP and 4 Other Predictions For 2016.”

The prediction is that Ms. Whitman will “declare victory” and head to a more halcyon place. Fortune asks, “Who could blame her?”

That’s nifty. A quitter. I suppose when one works at Fortune, the idea of quitting is a pretty attractive one.

Will Ms. Whitman depart? I don’t know. I do know that the litigation she spawned will continue through 2016 and probably years to come.

When she departs, the law firms dealing with her Autonomy allegations may give her a bouquet of —what?—day lilies?
