TeeHee. That's my favorite kind of PR spin.

HP today trumpeted to the world that they are going to spend THREE BILLION DOLLARS over the next twelve decades to broaden the acceptance of the processor that ABSOLUTELY EVERYBODY WANTS, the ITANIC! Everybody wants it! HP couldn't keep up with the demand, so they are spending THREE BILLLION DOLLARS to help it RULE THE WORLD!

< blah blah blah paragraph paragraph paragraph...... >

(Oh, pssst, in a separate minor and totally unrelated development, HP dumped their Itanic team. It was a hard decision, but HP had to make the choice between Itanic and iPod, one of them had to go. But pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.)


Gotta love it.

So what IS their "real" business? Slapping a once proud trademark on a Canon print engine? Slapping a couple of once proud trademarks on Wintel PCs? Or is Carly just trying to emulate Chainsaw Al?

JMHO.
