I'm seriously starting to wonder what kind of water some of the bigger companies are drinking these days. With Netflix throwing their DVD Rental Service under the Qwikster brand only to withdraw almost immediately and leave things alone. And then with HP deciding to leave the PC market. As announced back in August, HP decided to look at selling off their PSG Group; which handles the home PC services and product lines. In order to align themselves more into the business hardware market. Kind of like IBM did back in the day; which turned out to be a really good move for IBM.
Now however, it looks as though they have changed their minds and issued a stay of execution for the PSG Group. I am completely aware that the way business has to be conducted has changed. The way companies operated 10 years ago when compared to now has become drastically different with the changes in the times, technology, cost, government restrictions, etc. But I don't see how confusing the crap out of current and potential customers is the way to go about things.
As far as the TouchPad goes, I wouldn't hold my breath for it. Considering nobody bought the device until HP decided to offload them quickly.
