He was recruited by Apple and was the subject of a lawsuit between Apple and IBM. Then he left Apple around a year later with questions swirling about why and how he left. Now Mark Papermaster has been hired by networking giant Cisco Systems. Now Cisco should be a better fit for Papermaster as he doesn’t have to deal with the reality distortion field with the rather unique Apple culture. Rather, Cisco is your typical Fortune 500 company. So this looks like the end of the Papermaster saga. Unless Apple decides to pull an IBM and sue Cisco. I can’t see why they would. But these days in the tech world, everybody is suing everybody so who knows.
