But there's a great "concept about what to do next..." - simply REVERSE the
bad decision.  One way to do that would be to form a seperate legal entity
and transfer all of the MPE related software/hardware to that entity.  That
way HP could claim to be out of the 'proprietary' operating system and make
huge improvements in MPE customer satisfaction.
