When I was a kid HP products were well-supported and famed for their durability. My dad still uses the HP scientific calculator his father bought in the '70s and my uncle has an old PC hooked up to a '90s LaserJet printer that works perfectly well. Retired engineers I've talked to gush about working there in the HP Way days, they were respected and got to create fantastic products that their customers loved.

Now "HP" is a curse word to anyone in tech. It's a damn shame.



I feel like a lot of companies went that way. I have one of those HP calculators, and it was fantastic.
