HP denies bullying ASUS

Posted on Friday, October 17 2008 @ 22:04 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
TechRadar heard from HP that the allegations DigiTimes made yesterday aren't true:
Reports were circulating that the company had been informing its manufacturing partners to "not accept orders from Asustek, and threatening that if anyone violates the demand, the company will penalize the maker by reducing its own outsourcing volume," based on an original news story on Digitimes.

"HP categorically denies these allegations," a spokesperson told TechRadar.

"HP did not send out any notice, nor did it communicate in any manner to its manufacturing partners that they not accept orders from Asustek."
