Sincerely hope that when installed their system boots up quicker than the piece of shit HP desktop i brought last year.....
Oh, and fuck using Windows 95...........and don't even get me started about my floppy drive.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise is an entirely new business founded two years ago, and has a pretty mediocre stock performance. I would imagine the decision has been made for money, not for great technical reasons.
Hewlett Packard has been in a downward spiral for years. They separated into two companies a couple of years ago, moving out of the consumer business and focusing mainly on enterprise.
We clearly have a long standing relationship with someone involved with them, but their buyout of Autonomy (another of our sponsors) got them into all kinds of shit for accounting fraud and such. They had to pay out $100m to shareholders due to financial irregularities with the buyout.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise to my knowledge tho has nothing to do with the old Hewlett Packard, so very hard to know if it's a good thing. The old business is now called HP Inc and trades under that.
