TiVo’s New Chairman a Switcher

By Scott McNulty

The good folks over at Blogging DEMO covered a
'fireside' chat with soon to be Chairman of TiVo Mike Ramsey. They focus on the TiVo related points on the conversation, and rightly so.
Luckily for us Om Malik was there as well, and he ferreted out the
real news.

Ramsey switched from a PC to a Powerbook a few months ago because he was sick and tired of dealing with all the problems that come along with that other operating system. He was so impressed with the Powerbook that he is getting a G5 next and his IT department is thinking of Macs now as well.

This is good for Apple, because if the big man in a company wants something, he gets it, even if his corporate IT
department usually won't support Macs. How soon before other top execs who just want to get work done wise up and buy an Apple?
