HP and Google Team Up to Offer Small Businesses "IT in a Box" - Arik Hesseldahl - News - AllThingsD

HP is now a Google Apps reseller; HP is also seeking a safe HAVEn in big data

"It’s the latest move on the chessboard by HP to get a little closer to Google, and it is interesting in light of the fact that Microsoft has both been building its own hardware — the Surface — and also cozying up to HP rival Dell with a $2 billion loan to help finance its $24.4 billion leveraged buyout. The move is also taking place against the backdrop of HP’s further embrace of Android and Chrome-based hardware. It just added a second Chromebook to its line of notebooks, and also offers an Android-based tablet."
