Q HP also says that you do not have enough of a business background, especially compared to the other people on the board.

A I have been a close observer of Hewlett-Packard for more than 50 years. I have been on the board for more than 15 years. I have worked for the company on three separate occasions (the summers of 1964, 1967 and 1970). I really understand HP.


Well Wally just lost my vote. As the spoiled brat son of a factory owner I had a summer job in the years 66-69 as well. I can tell you for a fact that what was going on in the plant at any given time was the farthest thing from my mind. My only thoughts were what party I was going to that night.

If I ever based any business decision on what I learned those four summers I be flat broke now.
