XEROX CEO Anne Mulcahy has announced that she will retire on July 1, to be succeeded by Ursula Burns, the printer and copier outfit's president.

Burns' ascension to the top job at Xerox will make it the largest Fortune 500 company to appoint a black female CEO.

Burns, 50, has been Mulcahy's heir apparent and company president since April 2007. µ

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
