HP In The Driver's Seat

Two features this week show how HP is out-maneuvering it's competitors: in HP-Lenovo Face-Off, Steve Burke looks at how the little things are turning a big VAR towards HP; while in How HP Caught Up To Dell, Jeff Schwartz identifies how everything from design to channel programs helped HP pull into the number one spot for PC sales:

"HP and Dell have achieved pricing parity in the market, and newly designed notebooks with consistent perhipheral interfaces have broadened HP's appeal. Most notably HP has made major changes to its channel program, making it more appealing for solution providers to sell PCs again."
