Tech Rumors Flying Eric Schmidt to Join Apple Board

Google CEO Eric Schmidt is rumored to be near a seat on the board of Apple Computer.

Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs has been recruiting Schmidt in an effort to extend Apple's relationships and synergies with Tech titans.

Other technology chiefs on Apple's board include the likes of: Intuit, Genentech, and Forbes Media (Global Warming Expert and Internet Creator) Al Gore also sits on Apple's board they must sit him next to major shareholder Forrest Gump at board meetings.

Eric Schmidt Google's hand-picked leader since 2001 holds a computer science Ph.D. from UC Berkeley and used to work at Sun Microsystems and Xerox.

More rumors have Google and Apple joining in a new IPOD hybrid music/video product offering although GOOG continues to downplay interest in any music ventures.

If the Appple board seat plays out for Schmidt it could send mixed messages to Round Rock Texas, as the new Dell/Google computer product line and revenue share deals have yet to roll out in the marketplace.
