Does Hewlett-Packard still make instruments? I don't know, but I'll bet

While not for electrical engineers, HP did continue to make analytical
instruments for chemistry and the life sciences until recently. In ~2000,
this division of HP was spun off into Agilent, presumably so that HP could
"focus" on computers and printers.
Yes, Agilent also does electrical and network testing gear. In fact,
I did some work on their "Internet Advisor" network test set. I added
some features to their Frame Relay protocol analysis (for those who
care, I added the code to cross-reference DCLI channel numbers in LMI
link management packets versus the DLCI numbers seen in actual network
traffic) as part of work they outsourced.
