Longtime Microsoft exec Veghte leaving
C|Net | at | by Mike
Microsoft said on Thursday that senior vice president Bill Veghte is leaving the company after nearly two decades.
Veghte, who began his career as associate product manager on the Office team and who also headed North American sales, was most recently head of the business side of Windows. However, the 19-year veteran had transitioned those responsibilities to Steven Sinofsky, who last July was named to head both business and engineering efforts for the flagship operating system. At the time, Microsoft said Veghte would move to a new, unspecified role.
