HP might already fire its new CEO

Bloomberg and All Things D both report that HP’s board is already considering firing CEO Leo Apotheker. One potential candidate is former eBay CEO Meg Whitman.

Looks like not everyone is thrilled about the whole “dump the world’s biggest PC business and try to become an enterprise software company” approach. Or at least the way Apotheker has handled it.
