@Market Analyst You can either be WalMart or you can be The Limited. You can't be Sears. Hurd's growth strategy was Sears.
Does that mean HP needs to be WalMart? I don't think it can afford to be, although Hurd was pressing costs in that direction.
I still don't get why he felt forced to phony up his expense reports. He was so golden there he could have put down "hookers" and the board would have paid off.
