HP leaving the market?

The HP company might be leaving the computer market for good.  Yep, HP is going to stop selling and making smartphones, tablet computers, and personal computers.  This move is reportedly all because of apples success in the tablet market.  HP plans to transform their buisness to be more like IBM.

Which is why everyone rushed to get a TouchPad for $99, once announced. I got one.
