  • Memorandum in Opposition to Hewlett-Packard Company's Motion to Quash Intel's Subpoena Duces Tecum
    ORIGINAL UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BEFORE THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION ) In the Matter of ) ) DOCKET NO. 9341 INTEL. CORPORATION, ) a corporation ) PUBLIC ) .' ) MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO HEWLETT -PACKARD COMPANY'S MOTION TO QUASH INTEL'S SUBPOENA DUCES TECUM Intel Corporation ("Intel") submits this memorandum in opposition to Hewlett-Packard Company's ("HP") motion to quash Intel's subpoena duces tecum issued on March 11,2010 ("Subpoena"). HP's motion should be denied, and it should be ordered to comply with Intel's Subpoena, as narrowed by Intel's April 19,2010 letter. Intel's Subpoena seeks documents necessary to defend against Complaint Counsel's broad allegations and claimed relief. The Complaint alleges that Intel engaged in unfair business practices that maintained its monopoly over central processing units ("CPUs") and threatened to give it a monopoly over graphics processing units ("GPUs"). See CompI. iiii 2-28. Complaint Counsel's Interrogatory Answers state that it views HP, the world's largest manufacturer of personal computers, as a centerpiece of its case. See, e.g., Complaint Counsel's Resp. and Obj. to Respondent's First Set ofInterrogatories Nos. 7-8 (attached as Exhibit A). Complaint Counsel intends to call eight HP witnesses at trial on topics crossing virtually all of HP' s business lines, including its purchases ofCPUs for its commercial desktop, commercial notebook, and server businesses. See Complaint Counsel's May 5, 2010 Revised Preliminary Witness List (attached as Exhibit B). Complaint Counsel may also call HP witnesses on other topics, including its PUBLIC FTC Docket No. 9341 Memorandum in Opposition to Hewlett-Packard Company's Motion to Quash Intel's Subpoena Duces Tecum USIDOCS 7544743\'1 assessment and purchases of GPUs and chipsets and evaluation of compilers, benchmarks, interface standards, and standard-setting bodies.

HP CEO Carly Fiorina concedes that neither the stock nor profits are where they should be. But that's not because HP's acquisition of Compaq was wrongheaded, she says. It is instead, she claims, the result of a more extended downturn in IT spending than many expected and of weaknesses in "execution" that she is driving to fix. Fiorina sees HP today as a well-provisioned, intensely global, end-to-end corporation. Her pride, which she is not short of, is bound up with somehow making this company work, even if not by the definition detailed in the merger proxy.

Ross and Carol Brown Date: January 2001 Abstract: Compaq Computer Corporation and Digital Equipment Corporation formally joined forces on June 11, 1998, creating a $37 billion (US) personal computer and computing services firm. The merger was expected to generate synergies that would lead to cost take-out and cross-selling opportunities. In order to generate these benefits, however, management of the combined firm would have to overcome the challenges presented by two very different management styles, cultures, organizational forms, and technology infi-astructures. This case describes the challenges from the perspective of the two firms' IT units. It explains how IT leaders ft-om the two firms cooperated to deliver an ambitious set of Day One goals, and how they worked through ongoing challenges during the eight months immediately following the merger. It offers lessons about the role of technology in facilitating merger-induced organizational changes and serves as a reminder of the importance of strategic direction in setting the IT agenda.
