It's my opinion that Compaq will be pissed away by HP just as Compaq pissed
away DEC.
I never really did *love* Compaq, mainly because they are a PC company.
They make good PC's, but I hate PC's.
The real problem is that several thousand employees are going to get the
axe because of a power trip by an HP CEO.
I love to see someone who actually believes that the "new" HP will compete
with IBM.
