      SAN FRANCISCO -- Microsoft Corp. said Tuesday that Chief Financial Officer Chris Liddell will be leaving the company at the end of this year. Liddell will be replaced by current Microsoft business division finance chief Peter Klein, Microsoft said. Liddell, who joined Microsoft in 2005, has generally been applauded by Wall Street for his guiding of the software giant's finances throughout the recession. Microsoft announced its first-ever official round of layoffs in January, and is counting on the latest release of its Windows software to help it rebound following a string of downbeat quarters.
