HP's Acquisition of 3Com

News that HP has acquired 3Com is news and probably went unnoticed largely. Juxtaposing it with the acquisition of EDS last year, clearly HP has a strategy where these pieces fall into place. While HP cemented its services game plan to meet the challenge from IBM with the EDS acquisition, with the acquisition of 3Com, it is meeting the challenge from Cisco.

Will be interesting to see how the integration of these companies will play out to bring value to HP's revenue and profitability.
