I saw a piece in the inquirer that HP may spin of the printing division
and name it HP, the retained part will have some "other computer name".
Maybe they want to get out of the computer business. Maybe somebody
will pick up the old DEC portion and revive it. We can only hope.

As HP managed it to get DEC back to the size of a garage/mill company,
probaby Mr. Olsen is interested again ?

OK, now that is insulting! How dare you compare DEC to that tramp!
Especially considering who is running HP these days!
That's one reason that we have a ten year rule! The "new" HP -- yuck!
