resellers have been buying these up every time they show up; I've
watched this for nearly ten years now. They wouldn't do that if they
didn't know they'd have a buyer.
The real reason HP won't make more is because they've got fucking
clueless incompetent idiots working in management. But we already knew
that.

Is does seem like HP will hire pretty much anyone as CEO these days. Meg
Whitman ? I never saw that in a million years. She's never even worked
at a computer hardware company in her life. The board of HP is out of
their minds. What's the line on how long she lasts before being fired
with a huge golden parachute ?
Oh, but we all gained a much deeper understanding of her genius through
the gubernatorial run*. How we underestimated Ms Whitman!
