it was an amazing company that did legendary, pioneering research and development and made outstanding research tools. the HP of today is the result of 50 years of mergers, acquisitions, conglomeration, and violent shittification.
The HP you mention still exists today as Hewlett-Packard Enterprises, a separate company from HP Inc, which is the consumer-facing brand. It’s very similar to what Motorola did in splitting into enterprise and consumer companies.

I’m fairly sure that HP Enterprises includes their IT outsourcing arm and anybody who’s had experience with them will confirm how shit they are too.
