HP’s acquisition of Autonomy and interest in spinning off both its PC business and webOS can only mean one thing: HP has decided to play the coming revolution in mobility from the comfort of the data center and not in the consumer market of tablets and smartphones. This move makes Google’s acquisition of Motorola look prescient while representing the final collapse of the Silicon Valley PC era.
