HPE as we knew is dead

HPE as we knew is dead. They have made so many wrong decisions that it cannot survive. There is no technology leadership nor vision for the company, and the top executives do not even understand that they are not in a boxes market anymore. Customers... — read more

Brain drain going on at HPE
