it's good to have friends in high places

The Microsoft blog at ZDNet published a story: Former Microsoft MacBU chief now running entertainment client software.

That's right: Craig Eisler, the previous General Manager of MacBU, is now a Corporate Vice President. He's in charge of the entertainment client software, which includes Xbox and Windows Mobile. (Aside to Craig: couldn't you have shaved for the official headshot?) Those of you who've been watching MacBU for some time will remember that Craig's predecessor was Roz Ho, who's now the Corporate Vice President for premium mobile experiences.

This means that I now know two Microsoft CVPs, so I've got friends in high places!
