15 years ago, maybe. Now they just make inkjet cartridges, and whatever ancillary hardware they need to produce in order to sell more inkjet cartridges.]]>Sep 22nd 2006 6:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/Sep 22nd 2006 6:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/Sep 22nd 2006 6:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/Sep 22nd 2006 6:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/Sep 22nd 2006 7:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/

I however am definitely in the minority when it comes to this story as I feel that her intentions were good. She wanted to find out why someone amongst them would betray the company and those who work hard to bring HP back to prominence. I find it interesting that NO ONE is covering (what I liken to corporate espionage) the actions of George Keyworth. Note, he has ignored calls to resign for his part in the leaks. Directors, execs, employees sign confidentiality agreements and Mr. Keyworth broke that agreement.

Leaks are incredibly troublesome to corporations and governments alike. The concerns raised by Apple, Google and other firms are completely valid when reporters are given free reign over company secrets. In the age of blogs and anonymous posting, whistleblowing illegal actions is one thing, reporting proprietary and IP info is a completely different issue.

Ultimately Dunn will get what she deserves. CNET and Engadget will cheer her downfall, while raising Keyworth and those like him "god" status.

And since when are journalists so sacrosanct? They get the same treatment they give and suddenly it's so unfair. Waaaahhhhh. Give me a break.

BTW, the government does this and a lot worse to us everyday, but I'm not seeing a whole lot of indignance over that. I predict a large fleecing of the sheeple in the next two years.]]>Sep 23rd 2006 3:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/Since the days of Madamme Carly Fiorina the company has turned "motherly." They have women who couldn't hook up a modem or a monitor to the PC now promoted and in charge of an entire technical department, jetting in style back and forth to Nice (as in South of France) making global decisions for the company, while the guys are systematically laid off left and right.

Why wasn't there as much of a hue and cry about that invasion of privacy (which affected far more people) than this one? Is it because journalists were directly targeted in this case?]]>Sep 29th 2006 10:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/22/hp-chairwoman-patricia-dunn-resigns-effective-immediately/"Women in power, men should scour!"

HP needs a man to run the company this time around. Too much estrogen, plain and simple.
