HP Document Bungles Opponent Names PALO ALTO, Calif., Jan 29, 2002 (AP Online via COMTEX) -- You might think Hewlett-Packard Co. would have the names of its biggest opponents down cold by now. In its annual report filed Tuesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, HP noted that its proposed $22.5 billion acquisition of Compaq Computer Corp. is opposed by the David and "Lucite" Packard Foundation and "Edwin van Pronghorns." That would be the David and Lucile Packard Foundation - HP's largest shareholder - and Edwin van Bronkhorst, a former HP chief financial officer and a Hewlett family trustee. The document also gave "Limon" as the last name for Hewlett daughter Eleanor Hewlett Gimon. And perhaps fittingly, Mary Hewlett Jaffe's last name became "Gaffe." An HP spokeswoman declined to comment. ---
