Stock: HPQ

Yeah, okay, so Dell looked pretty today with its $1 billion in quarterly profits, but today's quarterly earnings reports really gave me a good chance to feel happy about one of Dell's competitors.

It was about a year ago that Hewlett Packard let go of Carly Fiorina and gave stock buyers everywhere the delicious opportunity to buy part ownership at about $20 a share. HPQ is trading at about $34 now and I don't think it's done going up. It's also one of the few technology stocks that also pays a dividend.
