> it's about proving something people need and want, and getting them to pay for it. HP sells more stuff that people want than almost any other company (printers, desktops, etc.).

Business fuels technology, technology drives the business. You get there by building your business and your technology hand in hand. If you stop building, you'll fail on both. That's what you don't learn in an MBA.
