I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

it was an amazing company that did legendary, pioneering research and development and made outstanding research tools. the HP of today is the result of 50 years of mergers, acquisitions, conglomeration, and violent shittification.
The HP you mention still exists today as Hewlett-Packard Enterprises, a separate company from HP Inc, which is the consumer-facing brand. It's very similar to what Motorola did in splitting into enterprise and consumer companies.
Fun fact! Motorola started out as a company making record players specifically for cars. The big name in record players at the time was Victrola, and since they were making them for motorcars they called themselves MotoRola.
I didn't know that! Having vinyl in the car tho.... hmmm... seemed to work out just fine for them though.
Even more fun! In-car record players were made upside-down so that the weight of the record held it against the needle. These are all of my record player facts.
I'm fairly sure that HP Enterprises includes their IT outsourcing arm and anybody who's had experience with them will confirm how shit they are too.
