Who got printers when HP split? HP Inc or HPE, or looking at the numbers, both?
HP Inc is flying high after netting a year of double-digit revenue gains, but execs are worried that a looming CPU shortage will hurt its sales in the coming months. CEO Dion Weisler noted on Thursday that both the fiscal quarter and the full-year numbers showed the biz doing very well in the competitive PC and printing …
I wouldn't have noticed personally, but for those wondering what the current HP logo looks like, here it is.
Is this the part of HP that's hoping to claw back billions over its bungling of the Autonomy takeover? If so, once they convince a US court that US accounting standards should be followed by companies operating in a different country with different laws and pratices, that will pad out those numbers nicely.
But, But,,
Nobody ever got fired for buying Intel. Businesses are totally and utterly riding the Intel train. Not even considering AMD.
I suggested AMD machines as a stop-gap solution for our current shortage problems, but was told the complication of managing more builds means we will just have to tough it out, after all it is all going to be cleared by Q2 next year!!
Q2 is the date everyone is being given by Intel, no-one seems to be planning for when we get close to Q2 and it 'still isn't quite resolved yet'.
But that is the problem with people these days as well as businesses, no ability to think for themselves. Believe everything they are told with no thought of what could go wrong.
