Dear Malcolm,
We'd like to take a moment to introduce you to the new HP.
Today, we bring together HP and Compaq to create one world-class
technology leader that we hope will earn the role of your partner of
choice. Hard work and the courage of our convictions brought us to this
day. Now, we're eager to prove we can seize the moment and lead the
change in our industry. Most important, we're eager to demonstrate that
our passion for customers is stronger than ever.
We believe this merger offers our customers important benefits. By
combining our strengths, we not only create the industry's leading
portfolio of products, technologies and solutions, we're putting an
extraordinary set of people, skills and processes at your disposal. We
have increased our research and development capabilities so that we
continue to make meaningful advances in technology that benefit you. And
we have strengthened our position as the world's most innovative and
successful consumer IT company, which gives us a unique opportunity to
help our customers bridge the world between digital content and
commerce.
By joining forces, we will also be able to reduce costs and improve our
operating model, enabling us to devote more of our resources toward
pursuits that produce greater value for you - today and in the future.
While this merger obviously signifies change, we are committed to making
the process of integrating our two companies as transparent as possible.
In fact, many aspects of doing business with the combined company will
remain the same - starting with our unwavering commitment to putting
customers first. Around the world, employees and partners of the new HP
will make every effort to ensure that your day-to-day interactions with
the new company go smoothly throughout the integration period - and
beyond.
If you have specific questions, please do not hesitate to visit http://www.hp.com/
for more detailed information, or contact a "new HP" customer
service representative at the same phone number you've always used.
On behalf of the people of the new HP, we would like to thank you for
standing by us through this important journey. We do not take your
loyalty for granted. We look forward to proving ourselves and building a
new kind of technology company - one that we can all be proud of.
Thank you, again, for your support.
Warm regards, |
