Dont Hold Your Breath for HPs The Machine

July 22, 2014

The article titled Does HP Have a Development Pipeline or a Pipe Dream? by Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols on Computerworld answers the titular question with great certainty. Calling on HP’s layoffs, troubled management, and Moonshot flop, the article goes so far as to predict HP’s demise to be more probably than their delivering on this new technology. The article states,

“Let’s do a reality check on HP’s plans. It needs one major technology breakthrough, one major step forward in existing technology and a new operating system to boot. Even HP doesn’t expect to see all of this working anytime within the next three years, but to think it can happen within that kind of time frame would be wildly optimistic… If this idea were coming from, say, Apple, IBM or Intel, I’d have to give them the benefit of the doubt.”

“The Machine” that HP is so excited to promote also requires two pieces of in-the-works technology to be fully functional, memristors and silicon photonics. Both of these are innovative pieces of the puzzle that will allow for an entirely new system architecture. But when? The article seems to posit that HP is in a race for its own survival. Things may not be so dire as that at HP, but perhaps they are when even an HP employee has admitted that memristors are far from becoming a reality in “this decade.”

    Unlike in television, time slots are restricted, and it is therefore not ideal for those who
    are busy at work. E-commerce was also part of this “web explosion”, going from only
    three Chinese portal websites in 2000 (sina. These views will increase your online presence and boost your sales and leads.

    …If this idea were coming from, say, Apple, IBM or Intel, I’d have to give them the benefit of the doubt.”….This reflection in against HP of S J Vaughan – Nichols is Sad and defeatist. HP is making big progress in technology and innovation and the launch of new products this year to the market, this demonstrate HP it is on correct way. The unknown factors it can to slow down new developments of HP labs but that is common for all the research laboratories.

    The uniform has evolved to reflect this, featuring a tighter fit and more reinforcing and padding than the uniforms worn for most other martial arts.

    Mini nunchuka, or mini chucks, are about eight inches in length and be concealed more easily than the typical nunchuka.
    Ninja nunchaku are two sticks connected by a rope or chain.
