Well the procurve line would make more money if they charged Cisco like smartnet.
Just saying.

At the same time they are spinning off the PC division so the shareholders will get something out of it in the long run. I think they are following IBM's lead here and they are doing quite well overall. I wonder what will happen with the ProCurve line, I'm sure that all depends on the profit margin!

I'd say they are having some issues. Yah, I heard that this morning. I wonder what "personal computer" means in this context. Do they just mean home and consumer laptops, or also the business desktop/laptop machines, or everything smaller than a refrigerator, or anything with an x86...? I also find it telling that in the same breath, they're talking more acquisitions. I realize this is a simplistic view, but it strikes me as lacking direction. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin -- Thank you, Mike Sullivan ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin This email and any attached files are confidential and intended solely for the intended recipient(s).
