HP is in the business of screwing customers by selling them cheap printers and ink that’s more expensive than gold.

Rapacious business model. Hate HP. Therefore, Hate CARLY.

“HP is in the business of screwing customers by selling them cheap printers and ink that’s more expensive than gold.”

In the middle of the “dot.Com” bubble bust, Carly set HP on a new course by buying Compact/CompuServe thereby setting them up for long term success that they enjoy now. She did “P” off the old guard on the Board of Directors which led to a lot of infighting and her eventual demise as CEO. Time has shown Carly made the right move at the right time.
Accolades.

Credit where it is due,,,,,

She’s well down on my list of favored candidates, but well ahead of a lot of well known “me too, it’s my turn” candidates.

Hp’s were the best workhorse printers in the world. Their little 1000 series printers used to last 12 to 15 years. Used to be cheap to run with staples replacement cartridges. Then HP told staples no more cheap cartridges.
