hp and compaq same company now? they should change the name of it fro ipaq to somethin else. I don't even think HP with that name.

 

It is still an iPaq because its compaqs technology. The company's name is now HP so of course its going to have the logo.

HP had the Journada which, of course the iPaq is way better.

 

change it. compaq is ghetto. you have the power juan, make it happen. ha

 

Aww man. Compaq is the shit man.

Proliant servers for example are compaq technology. They are the best servers out there. ie, an account we have here at in the Remarketing Division(the division I work in), made headlines about three weeks ago.

Blow-dried servers weather storm, retain data
Posted September 28, 2004



Remember the old Timex slogan, "It takes a licking and keeps on ticking?" After what a group of rack-mounted HP ProLiant servers went through recently, a similar slogan may be in order.

Last week, a Washington D.C.-based home healthcare provider suffered extensive damage to its server room from a tornado caused by the remnants of Hurricane Ivan. The severe weather ripped off the building's roof, exposing all 100 of its ProLiant DL380 systems to sheets of driving rain and fierce winds.

However, thanks to a creative idea and some elbow grease from representatives of HP partner Network Alliance, nearly all of the servers survived, retaining invaluable data for the end customer.

"A team of 13 Network Alliance members really saved the day," says HP Remarketing Services (HPRS) Account Manager Carlos Washington, who has sold the healthcare provider approximately 30 refurbished ProLiant servers per year for the last few years. "When the team first arrived, they didn't think the servers could be saved and didn't know what to do. They were really grasping at straws but wanted to do something. So they went out and bought 25 hair dryers, moved the servers to an adjoining room (that had a roof) and began blow-drying each one of the servers individually."

Washington explains that the ProLiant units' automatic shutdown system worked perfectly when they were exposed to the heavy rains. Then, amazingly enough, once the Network Alliance representatives plugged in the freshly blown-dry servers, 97 of the 100 rebooted themselves

 

as stated earlier ....
.... but alot of people use PDA as a broad term

 

yeah, i was just stating that using PDA to lean towards just Palm Pilots is inaccurate. It *should* be used as a broad term, b/c it is one. For people to use it as a broad term is correct to me. the incorrect part is that b/c Palm is so well known, all PDAs are often just called Palm Pilots. And those holding a Pocket PC can say, Palm OS sucks. hahahah

It's like how we all call soft drinks Cokes.

 

Actually it's mostly southern. Up in the north people say, soda or pop.
