Employee's seem to have much more confidence in him, including confidence that he's not restructuring just for the sake of restructuring (or for the sake of Wall Street's short-term perceptions), but only after careful deliberation with the input of a wide swath of managers and employees.

We'll see. I was sort of surprised to learn that they are going to be able to cut 10% of the workforce without significantly touching sales and r&d. What is all the excess still doing there considering Carly had spent a lot of the last three years reducing headcount?

I wonder if HPQ is going to miss the July Q revenue expectations? Everyone has said that Europe has been weak, and HPQ has a larger % of sale from Europe than its peers.
