Microsoft president Belluzzo resigns his post unexpectedly
Associated Press
SEATTLE - Rick Belluzzo, Microsoft Corp.'s president and chief operating officer, unexpectedly resigned Wednesday after a little more than a year in the position. The company said it has no plans to replace him.
Belluzzo, a longtime computer and software industry executive, joined Microsoft in September 1999 and held several senior positions before being promoted to his current position in February 2001.
Microsoft said in a statement Wednesday that Belluzzo would remain in his position until May, and would stay at the company until September to organize the transition. Belluzzo said in a statement he planned to start his own company.
Analysts said the resignation was wholly unexpected - many assumed Belluzzo was being groomed to replace chief executive Steve Ballmer.
