Compaq Computer

Company

The American supplier of the computer equipment sold to HP company in 2002 for $25 billion.

In 2002, in a dispute with Dell for the sphere of the PC, the HP company purchased the producer of Compaq personal computers for $25 billion but it distracted the attention from other, not less important sphere: victories over IBM in the field of servers, storage systems and services.
