NEW YORK —
Hewlett-Packard CEO
Leo Apotheker said HP will include
WebOS capability with all its PCs by
next year.
Apotheker said
this in an interview
with Bloomberg
News.
Apotheker
said including
WebOS will create
vast user base
for the mobile OS
and encourage
developers to
create WebOS
apps. He did not specify how WebOS
would be incorporated into HP’s other
platforms.
Apotheker says he also wants to
make better use of WebOS, the computer-
operating system acquired last
year when HP purchased smartphone
maker Palm for $1.2 billion. Starting
next year, every one of the PCs
shipped by HP will include the ability
to run WebOS in addition to Microsoft’s
Windows, Apotheker said.
