@thomasfuchs I've been using an HP printer for over 30 years without a single repair.

Yep. 4 separate companies.

“HP Inc.”(HPQ) makes enshittified consumer printers and computers.

“Hewlett Packard Enterprise” (HPE) is what it says on the tin. Enterprise (mostly big; they own Cray and SGI) machines and networking (Aruba).

“Agilent” (A) is now all biotech and life sciences lab and clinical equipment; used to include the test & measurement equipment.

“Keysight” (KEYS) is now the successor of the legendary HP test equipment lineage.

@thomasfuchs the exception would be the original hp,com created by a teenager learning and sharing how to create homepages, and who got sued by hewlett-packard because they were a bit late to the party (internet)
