H-P CFO Lesjak: CEO Search Committee Is Actively Interviewing Candidates

Hewlett Packard Co. (HPQ) is actively interviewing candidates to
fill its vacant chief executive spot, a move that comes as the
hardware-and-services giant seeks to expand its position in the
technology world through acquisitions.
"We've been very pleased with the selection of candidates,"
Interim Chief Executive Cathie Lesjak said at a technology
conference on Wednesday. She said the Palo Alto, Calif.-based
company had received more applicants than initially expected.
H-P's former chief executive, Mark Hurd, left abruptly last
month after questions were raised about his personal conduct. On
Monday, Hurd was appointed as co-president of database giant Oracle
Corp. (ORCL), a move that rankled H-P. H-P subsequently filed a
lawsuit against Hurd.
