WSJ.com - At Sun, McNealy to Cede CEO Job; Loss Widens but Revenue Rises 21%

WSJ.com - At Sun, McNealy to Cede CEO Job; Loss Widens but Revenue Rises 21%: "Sun Microsystems Inc. said co-founder Scott McNealy will give up the job of chief executive to the No. 2 person at the company, Jonathan Schwartz, a historic transition for a computer maker facing stiff pressure to cut costs and boost revenue.
Mr. McNealy, 51 years old, will remain chairman and a full-time employee. Mr. Schwartz, 40, who had been president and chief operating officer, will retain the former title."

So... tell us what's going to be different, and why being "... one of Silicon Valley's most prominent executive bloggers" is a strong leading indicator for leadership potential in one of the industry's most challenging roles...
