we need to have another operating system
We believe what is happening is that new leadership under CEO Meg Whitman is aiming to under-promise and over-deliver to rebuild investor confidence.
I think it’s possible if you integrate tablets
Although good to see new CEO Meg Whitman at least attempt to reset the bar, we nevertheless see revs and EPS eroding rather dramatically into FY12, which combines with an already-weakened balance sheet to make us expect little near-term uplift for the stock, nor any quick fixes.
That’s what we’ve seen a lot of ... It’s an additional purchase.
They set a goal they could achieve, they wanted to put a number out there that they could hit ... Meg Whitman is bringing a focus to operating the business which has been lacking.
Yes. I think it's possible if you integrate the shelves.
Meg Whitman is bringing a focus to operating the business which has been lacking.
We should announce our decision in the next two weeks

If money was the only thing that matters, Meg Whitman would rule the world.
I think over the last year we confused some people over who we are as a company
I want to get the HP drama out of the headlines ... This kind of chief-executive transformation is very hard — it's hard on employees, it's hard on customers.
The R&D investment in virtually every business we are taking up this year, after an increase last year, but it is absolutely required ... If we’re going to get out of the M&A business — of big M&A — we’ve got to actually invest in R&D.
We need to get back to putting our heads down, getting out of the news cycle and reducing the drama here
We cut out a lot of muscle in R&D at this company, and we have to invest back in it
We have tremendous R&D capability here ... We’ve got a lot of runway with our own internal R&D capability if we run it right and invest in it right.
We didn't live up to our expectations in 2011. We need to get back to doing what we do really well, being the reliable, trusted partner with whom our customers want to work and delivering the reliable, consistent results that all of you can count on
I have been on the phone with the heads of all four of our disk drive partners. I am not even sure they have a complete picture about when they are going to be back up and running
I had partners tell us they thought we were getting out of hardware entirely
