Not to mention that she also downplayed the Alpha and PA-RISC product lines to non-existence, while decreasing the quality of printers produced.
Integral said:The Aglient spin off occurred before Carly, we can't blame that on her.
Gokul43201 said:Uh oh ! Guess I jumped the gun on that one eh ?
Any chance the old RPN calculators will be back ?
The 32S-II is so hard to find...they sell on Ebay for a gazillion bucks a pop.
Integral said:The main thing Carly did was to completely destroy the fundamental tenants of the Company as established by Hewlett and Packard. HP used to be THE company to work for now it is just another large company. Hopefully someone who understands what HP stood for can now take the reigns and start to put back together the pieces.

Evidently you are not in tune with the Hi Tech industry. I am sure SW Airlines is a great company... How many engineers do they employ? How much R&D do they do? Sorry I am not a pilot, Jet engine mechanic or a flight attendant, and have little interest in those positions. So for my class of job, HP was at one time THE place to work. Clearly there are a lot of factors which enter into the definition of "THE".loseyourname said:I don't know. I'd say Southwest Airlines has always been the big company to work for. Then again, I've never worked for either, so that conclusion is drawn mostly from Forbes reports.
I don't think it is so much risk as it is money from the bottom line, i.e. less money in the pockets of the top level/executive management. Sorry, to be so cynical, but I have seen top level R&D or S&T (Science and Technology) groups decimated over the last two decades.Ivan Seeking said:The risk for R&D is so high that few companies wish to assume the liability.
