HP On a Roll

Hewlett Packard is on quite a win streak. As we featured in our September cover story, HP beat out juggernauts EDS and IBM to win Proctor & Gamble's $3 billion, 10-year IT services contract, a huge win that got the company a sturdy foothold in the lucrative services industry.

Today, HP announced it has won a three-year contract worth up to $500 million to provide hardware, software and services to help the U.S. Army integrate its information systems.

And to think some people didn't want the HP / Compaq merger to go through.
