Former Autodesk CEO Carol Bartz, 56, has accepted Yahoo's offer to becoming their brand spanking new CEO, at least according to the Wall Street Journal. This comes after Yahoo has seen a sharp drop in its stock price, and CEO and founder Jerry Wang decided to step down from the throne. Bartz is currently the executive chairman of Autodesk. She has also been an executive at Sun Microsystems, and sits on the board of Cisco, along with Yang.
