    And look how far they've fallen: Selling inkjet printers using the razor & blades business model, and perverting the intent of the DMCA to protect that model. Selling PCs made with the cheapest of components and refusing to repair them under warranty by invoking the "lightning damage" excuse. (They said that to my girlfriend during a drought; it hadn't rained a drop in 6 months. She got the PC back from them and I only had to replace the power supply to fix it.) HP used to stand for something, but not anymore.

    @WB: They are also both dead. And IIRC, you can have lightning w/o rain.

    Thats weird, Weezer's garage turned them into rockstars, I guess this is what happens when you leave oscillators laying around.

    @mikeness: So if I had a garage with girls in it, I'd be successful with them?
