Apples to BlackBerrys: John Sculley reportedly considering bid for failing phone maker

John Sculley Former CEO Of Apple And President Of Pepsi

For anyone who has followed Apple’s history, John Sculley is a familiar figure. He was the CEO who famously ousted Steve Jobs from the company he co-founded in 1985; he championed the ill-fated Newton; and he eventually left Apple as its profits turned to losses in 1993.

Yesterday afternoon, The Globe and Mail published a report that has the potential to change that legacy. According to the piece by Steven Chase and Iain Marlow, the man who fired Steve Jobs is considering a bid for BlackBerry.
