We all remember Hewlett Packard's domination in the 2d printing market in the early 2000's. Well it appears that HP is planning on jumping into the 3D print market sooner rather then later. Today during HP's earnings call for the third quarter, Whitman stated the following:
“What we are focusing on is what is value proposition by market segment,” Whitman said. “We have some very interesting things coming. Stay tuned” for something in 2014.
Seems like they may have some tricks up their sleeves. Should be interesting to see what they come out with. My Guess is that it will be an affordable printer which is as easy to use as a regular 2d printer.
