    Flowers for Matt?

    I assume someone will post where we can send flowers for Matt's funeral? It could be good for HP. With out him spreading FUD and nonsense, maybe people will consider buying from HP again?

    Aw, thanks!

Oh, but then you'd proabbly be sending flowers to yourselves.

    Face facts - hp is still going to make a profit this year, because hp makes profits when it is good times or bad. And hp's customers will still go on buying hp kit When was the last time Sun made a profit? Not even when Ponytail sold it. And who knows what kit will be available from Oracle next year?
