Microsoft investors want Mulally and CSC's Mike Lawrie to be the main candidates for the position    



From DailyTech:

According to a new report from Reuters, a special committee of Microsoft's board is seriously considering either Ford Motor Co.'s CEO Alan Mulally or Computer Sciences Corp.'s (CSCs) CEO Mike Lawrie as the next Microsoft CEO. In fact, at least three of the top 20 investors in Microsoft are rooting for one of the two "turnaround experts."

Mulally and Lawrie are on a list of about 40 other potential CEO candidates, and the special committee has already started narrowing the choices down. It's not clear who the other 38 candidates are/were or how many remain a possibility.
