    NEWS: HP buys out Voodoo PC

    Voodoo PC President and CTO Rahul Sood has posted an announcement on his blog saying his company has been acquired by HP. HP was selected as an ideal strategic partner after Sood and his brother talked to various manufacturers and system OEMs including Dell:

    With the help of a few good people at HP I will now be taking the position of Chief Technologist for the Gaming Division. [Voodoo PC CEO Ravi Sood] will take the position as the Director of Strategy for the Gaming Division. For what it's worth the gaming division consists of VoodooPC and HP gaming products.
    Both Ravi and I will report to [HP VP and CTO] Phil McKinney.

    Voodoo will remain in Calgary and we shall continue to create premium luxury machines with more levels of personalization, and more features than we currently offer. Our strategy for the HP gaming portfolio is yet to be revealed – but expect the unexpected. . . . The bottom line: On behalf of Ravi, Trevor, Paul, Desmond, Angela, and the rest of the Voodoo team we are happy to report that HP has acquired Voodoo - and together – not separately - we are going to rock your world.

    If HP is starting to copy Dell's business model and ventures, we're in trouble.
    Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. -Douglas Adams
