Products cited in this presentation may be trademarks and/or registered trademarks of their respective companies, or of third-party companies. • Some of this material is contingent on the successful and timely implementation and execution of the HP Acquisition. Future strategic or product-specific decisions made by HP could affect the content of this presentation ƒ This material reflects SKHPC’s opinion and should be construed as an explanation, not a defense, of Compaq’s IPF Consolidation, HP’s acquisition of Compaq, or HP’s product roadmaps, strategies, and organizational changes. ƒ Caveat lector! All the material in this talk is believed to be accurate, however its accuracy cannot be guaranteed. ƒ SKHPC does not deal in “Probability Factors”… but our twenty-year accuracy record exceeds 90 percent. ƒ Trust but verify: This presentation contains no information obtained under nondisclosure. SKHPC strongly suggests that you obtain proprietary or futures-related information from HP before making purchasing decisions. Since it’s hard to predict, especially the future, do not rely solely on commentary from any analyst without getting a second opinion! ƒ All material Copyright © 2003 by Terry C.
