The folks over at Slate have published a series of mails exchanged between HP board member and venture capitalist Thomas Perkins and HP attorney Larry Sonsini. Going through the email thread, one can see that Perkins gets outraged – on the pretext monitoring unleashed on their board members. Perkin says that the whole investigation was a Pattie Dunn program -100% conceived & managed by her, and unknown to the board, except in the most vague and imprecise terms!!
The best part is when Tom asks Sonsini about the program and the attorney at some point says that keeping mouth shut may be a better policy!! Sonsini is at his best when he completes a thorough investigation and concludes that HP did not do anything illegal. Crazy to say the least.
