Today we host an interview with Christophe de Dinechin, Software Architect in HP-UX (Software business unit, Infrastructure Solutions). Most of you already know HP-UX, the leading "traditional" UNIX today feature-wise (second only to Solaris in Unix market-share, mostly competing with AIX). With Christophe we discuss HP-UX's competition, the other... 5 OSes HP supports with its various products, the Itanium platform and more.

You may have a bad experience with HP, but I don't think it is fair. Many monitors though matter the brand, both LCD and CRT in very very different ways die out faster than counterparts even from the same model family! If everyone could be guarenteed 100% uptime for monitors, that would be an engineering feat not comparable to anything done before.
Besides, if you refuse to buy a server from the same company that makes your spoiled monitor, forgive me for saying that you are plain stupid. There are many different autonomous departments of HP, the quality of servers aren't affected in any way by the poor quality of HP monitors - they are from two very very different set of engineers, manufactured in different locations, etc.
Well, it is your consumer choice, but frankly, you are limiting yourself from one very competitive company. Your loss.
