Dubmfuck, anyone with a clue sees the economy has worsened under your black messiah.
Let's see, HP makes computers.....computers are typically discretionary spending for consumers. Oooops, you don't understand discretionary. Uh, people's money they spend on extra stuff like computers after their living expenses.
Since many people are losing their jobs or FEAR losing their jobs, they don't feel like going to Best Buy and spending $300-$800 on a new HP computer. You see, dumbfuck?
Also, companies need computers to run their operations and HP being a popular brand is used by many companies even in the DoD, a Govt agency. Well, when the money is tight those companies and even Govt agencies quit buying new HPs until things get better.
Now run along dumbfuck.
No, it's simple to talk out of your ass. It is something different altogether to back it up with say, I don't know, facts? Got any of those? How about some specifics? Got any of those?
