12.08.2009HP could be violating US trade restrictions with Iran
HP has recently come under fire from the Boston Globe, who have reported that Redington Gulf, a third-party based in Dubai has been selling HP
printers in Iran for 11 years, since 1997. HP has partnered with them, but if the partnership began with knowledge that printers will be sold in
Iran by Redington Gulf, HP could face trade sanctions, as the US currently prohibits exports to Iran. HP claims that it fully complies with US export
laws, but further investigation yielded conflicting answers. In the late 1990s, before the partnership began, an HP executive had talked about sales
in Iran and HP's desire to be in the market.

that HP plans to support, Thornton also hopes to continue to pre-install both Windows XP Professional and Vista Business on its business-oriented
netbooks.

a lot of other factors that make the POD a serious, almost no-brainer contender when planning for a datacenter solution. HP POD solutions can provide
a complete, pre-configured, ready to plug in and get-to-work datacenter in six weeks. Try that with a traditional brick and mortar solution.
