HP Set to Take Over Dell, Inc.

In a move that has caught technology analysts by surprise, Hewlett-Packard, the world's leading PC manufacturer, is set to take over Dell Computers of Round Rock, Texas.   

Earlier this year, Dell announced a leveraged buyout by founder Michael Dell and Silver Lake Partners. Additional funding was set to be put in place by Microsoft. The deal was pending shareholder approval when HP stepped in to purchase 51% of Dell, Inc stock. The sale is rumoured to be worth $3.5 billion.   

HP was founded in a one-car garage in Palo Alto California in 1935 by William "Bill" Redington Hewlett and Dave Packard. The garage has since been dubbed the birthplace of Silicon Valley.
