Do we care? Air Force & HP. Wasn't USAF mandating TPM's?

Air Force to buy 141,000 PCs from HPSilicon Valley / San Jose
The U.S. Air Force will buy more than 110,000 desktop PCs and 31,000 notebooks in a semi-annual IT purchase from Hewlett-Packard Co., the company said Wednesday.

Palo Alto-based HP (NYSE:HPQ) did not disclose financial terms of the deal.

The devices will be distributed to Air Force bases around the world, HP said, adding that the Air Force has bought more PCs and workstations from HP than from any other vendor or manufacturer.

This latest deal includes the USAF's first purchase of mobile workstations, which provide high-end graphics capabilities, a larger screen than typical notebooks and enhanced processing power.

Overall, HP said it has delivered more than $185 million worth of products to the USAF since October 2004.
