diarch: You cannot grow revenue on patents that lose value every year. The strategy that Laura Marritot chose was the height of naivete. She had a few months when she first pushed out Iain that it looked like she might understand the business, but only months later she abandoned the business model and embraced a policy where lawyers where the sales team. I can't imagine which absolute failure of a decision she will always remember. She is now wondering why nobody will call her back about another job as a CEO.
