No mention of that little issue.


Now a bit about that announcement in general -
Management 101: FIRST - decide what projects to continue or cancel then
SECOND - let go of the staff for the canceled projects only.  And no, HP is
not saving anything by suspending these projects.  If a project is restarted
later, they have just temporarily suspended the expenses.  If a project gets
canceled, then why did it exist in the first place?
