Interesting, but my perceptions of HP are still colored by the junk they were shipping during the Fiorina era. Also, MS-Windows isn't happening for me. I could see maybe going back to Linux.
>All HP Workstations can support a variety of operating systems. HP engineers work extensively with Windows® and Linux® operating system providers to verify top performance, flexibility, reliability, and compatibility with HP Workstations. We conduct joint engineering collaboration with industry partners long before systems are introduced.
