| schestowitz[TR2] | More revenue would have be beneficial but a higher dividend - more than the miserly 1 cent per share share dividend increase - is inexcusable for a multi-billion dollar company.

| schestowitz[TR2] | It is much too early to defend Arvind. Until we see healthier revenue growth and not so much focus on cutting costs by letting people go left and right, we should not be applauding his performance just yet | May 09 17:20 |
