From the press release:

"The new HP will be structured around four operating units that build on the companies' similar go-to-market and product development structures to provide clear customer and competitive focus. Leadership and estimated revenues (calculated by combining the two companies' trailing four reported fiscal quarters) are as follows:

A $20 billion Imaging and Printing franchise to be led by Vyomesh Joshi, currently president, Imaging and Printing Systems, of HP.

A $29 billion Access Devices business to be led by Duane Zitzner, currently president, Computing Systems, of HP.

A $23 billion IT Infrastructure business, encompassing servers, storage and software, to be led by Peter Blackmore, currently executive vice president, Sales and Services, of Compaq.

A $15 billion Services business with approximately 65,000 employees in consulting, support and outsourcing to be led by Ann Livermore, currently president, HP Services."

My guess is that at least half of the $23B "servers, storage and software" division revenues are Windows related, especially since it's the only division that will be headed up by an ex-Compaq guy. That means that even combined they probably won't come up to Sun in Unix system revenues.

JMHO, of course.
