It just shows that all those Series A/B rounds at $15m-$20m won't buy you traction nor success. Or as many VCs would say "the market wasn't ready"

This kind of anti-customer move will only help initiatives such as open compute and companies that rely or want to develop this technology under that route. HP feels to me like it's going down hill.
