Samsung to purchase webOS rival Apple's patent war the entire PC circle is in turmoil after the news that HP is selling its PC business from the market. HP's suppliers, agents, including customers, are nervous about the news. To placate the mood, Hewlett-Packard spokeswoman and Hewlett-Packard Global vice President Cheung have come forward to say: HP is more inclined to divest rather than sell PC business. However, HP's attitude is clear on the touchpad of the W EbO s platform and Tablet PC. tend to peel rather than sell the PC business, on the one hand because HP PC business can also make money, on the other hand, the world is also difficult to find willing to invest heavily in enterprises, but on the W EbO s platform, there are many enterprises interested. Because the W EbO s platform is the most mature platform in addition to Apple IO s and Google Android, it has the potential to be bigger. Samsung is considering acquiring HP's W EbO s operating system, according to South Korean media reports. In HP's business adjustment, the biggest headache now is the HP Tablet PC Touchpad supplier. Hewlett-Packard originally booked four quarters of 100,000 tablets, now all these orders are suspended. HP hints that PC business will not be sold earlier this month, Hewlett-Packard announced that it was considering strategic options for the personal systems Sector (PSG), and that the news that HP would sell its PC business was shocking to investors across the PC industry and capital markets. HP PC suppliers, agents, including customers, expect HP to give a clear statement to avoid a long-term uncertainty. On HP's sale of the P C business, Hewlett-Packard spokesman said that HP's strategic choice for the PC sector, including the formation of independent companies by stripping or selling. HP said the process could take six to 12-18 months and a final decision is expected by the end of the year. "We are now more inclined to peel down the PC sector and form independent companies, and research shows that the best interests of HP's shareholders, customers and employees are split. "HP Global vice president, China (including Hong Kong) Hewlett-Packard Information Products group General Manager Cheung recently also through video stressed that there are some voices in the market has not correctly expressed the purpose of the strategic transformation of HP." Cheung reiterated that the strategic transition, which includes independent operations or remains unchanged, is aimed at consolidating competitive advantages and helping HP PCs gain greater room for growth. Cheung said if the P C Division was split, like the Agilent technology, which was listed separately in 1999, the latter, which had been listed separately after being split, has become the world's largest testing and measuring company. He thinks the PC division is still a good opportunity to develop. The announcement also implied that HP's PC department would not sell. Another big reason HP won't sell its PC business is that it's hard to find buyers. HP's PC business has a turnover of around 40 billion dollars a year, and if the PC business is to be sold, it will be valued at least 20 billion dollars. Lenovo Holdings chairman Liu said recently that HPPC business still has considerable profits, such as the sale price will be very high. It is hard to find a second home for a buyer with more than 20 billion dollars, but Samsung has made it clear that it will not buy a PC. Lenovo, Huawei and other candidates do not have such financial resources. Samsung wants to take over W EbO S, despite Samsung's claim that it is not interested in HP's PC business, but Samsung is interested in the Webo S that HP is selling. Samsung is considering acquiring HP's Webo s operating system, according to South Korean media reports, and it has recruited HP's former vice president for PC Marketing, Raymond Wahe R aym ondw AH. Samsung is interested in Webo s, which is the patent combination of Webo S. Previously, Google bought Motorola Mobile business sky-high, is to obtain Motorola mobile tens of thousands of patents, thereby in the mobile Internet terminals in the field to avoid the suppression of patent stick. It is reported that Google's acquisition of Motorola, Samsung Electronics chairman Lee Kun-hee shook a lot. Samsung is strong in hardware, but in software and the Internet, it is weaker than Google, Apple and Microsoft. In particular, Google's acquisition of Motorola Mobility, the original efforts to develop a ndroid (by Google development) system smartphone Samsung is in a very passive position. So it's understandable that Samsung is interested in Webo s systems. In addition, Palm's Webo S patent portfolio also helps protect Samsung from lawsuits from companies such as Apple. The latter has recently won another patent war victory in Europe, possibly prompting Samsung to stop selling G al-axy handsets locally. Samsung is not interested in the latest news from the market that it has been in talks with Hewlett-Packard recently, and that HP wants Samsung to buy its personal phone and other hardware businesses at the same time. Finally, the two sides reached a compromise: Hewlett-Packard will sell Samsung Webo s right of use, this cooperation will be used in a licensing manner. However, in the industry's view, if only through the authorization to obtain the right to use, Samsung is certainly not interested in W EbO S, because Samsung will worry about HP will not be on the W EbO in the big investment, W EbO s also difficult to have a future. Therefore, W EbO s best way out, or was Samsung acquisition.
