WSJ.com - Microsoft's Finance Chief Quits To Join Venture-Capital Firm: "John Connors, the Microsoft Corp. finance chief who guided the software giant through a historic transition to a more mature organization, is leaving to join a venture-capital firm. Microsoft said it is searching for a successor for Mr. Connors, who said he expects to remain as chief financial officer until April and that he is leaving voluntarily. The company is considering candidates both inside and outside Microsoft." I'm always suspicious when CFOs leave, "voluntarily" or otherwise.
