Palo Alto, Calif. — Hewlett-Packard appointed R. Todd Bradley as executive VP of the personal systems group (PSG), and recreating it as a stand-alone unit under the HP corporate umbrella.

Joshi will return to heading just the IPG.
Previously, Bradley served as CEO of palmOne and as an executive with Gateway.
