McNealy's simple tastes

The following article taken from today's San Jose Mercury News "Tech Notebook" section, hilarious! =)

MCNEALY'S SIMPLE TASTES

Sun Microsystems' Chief Executive Jonathan Schwartz mentioned that Chevy's is on the best-loved list of his predecessor, Scott McNealy, at a recent event. In fact, when McNealy was still Sun's CEO, he took Schwartz to Chevy's for lunch.

Schwartz, on the other hand, is quite the foodie. So when he's had a chance to pick the restaurant, where have he and McNealy gone?

That question recently drew a blank look from McNealy.

"I eat to refuel. To him, it's an experience," said McNealy, now Sun's chairman. "I probably wouldn't remember where we went. You're wasting money on a good meal with me. With a skillet and a microwave, I can cook just about anything I want to eat."

McNealy chewed on the question some more.

"Son of a gun. I don't think that cheapskate has taken me out to dinner," McNealy said with his trademark bite. "That's why I hired him. He's cheap."
