HP-Maintaining satisfactory gross margins in low-cost PCS-A paradox?

Well Eddie that's what everybody wants,but what HP wants and what HP can achieve are two different things.Just throwing around cliches wouldn't do it for sure.

On the other hand, Palo Alto, Calif.-based HP (company profile) thinks it can maintain satisfactory gross margins, even while selling low-cost systems (desktops start at less than $800 and notebooks at about $1,500), because of an efficient supply chain, he said.

"Our goal is to make sure there is no fat in the supply chain, and that we don't lose any money to inefficiency," Clay said. "I don't [foresee] a deep decrease in gross margins."
