SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc., a market leader in document imaging scanners and services, today announced that Bill Gates has joined the company as vice president, POS, and Doug Rudoph will take the post of vice president of product management and business development. Additionally, Nina Lutjens, senior director of distribution, DMR and service sales, will assume responsibility of the Fujitsu Imaging Products Group's (IPG) marketing initiatives.
