This week one disaster du jour was HP whos losses in one day were equal to the rise in POG in the last 2mos while at the same timeframe these Banks have taken as much as 40% hits since the Gold rise ... and Barclays being one which posted before of them having that $9Bil exposure to Spanish debt .

Hewlett is now restructuring and totally getting out of the box biz in the "post PC world " while taking a HUGE gamble moving into software with a $10 billion proposed acquisition of U.K. software company "Autonomy".

And who's helping to finance this risk gamble but Barclays above but we don’t know for sure Barclays will syndicate the loan to other banks and remains if this pans out and worth the risk to show Barclays is still a big corporate lender , but ight be too little too late for HPQ

* Right now off the Hewlett website they're offering their Touchpads for a song @ $99 each !
