William (Bill) Hewlett and David (Dave) Packard both graduated in electrical engineering from Stanford University in 1935. Palo Alto, California (1939) was the place here it was founded. The partnership was formalized on, 1939 with an investment of US $538. [9] Hewlett and Packard tossed a coin to decide whether the company they founded would be called Hewlett-Packard or Packard-Hewlett. Packard won the coin toss but named their electronics manufacturing enterprise the "Hewlett-Packard Company". HP built-in August 8, 1947, and went public on November 6, 1957. The main products they were thinking to sell were hardware electronics like computers, laptops, printers, scanners and UPS’s and CPU’s.

HP experimented with using Digital Equipment Corporation minicomputers with its instruments, but after deciding that it would be easier to buy another small design team than deal with DEC, HP entered the computer market in 1966 with the HP 2100 / HP 1000 series of minicomputers. A simple accumulator-based design, with registers arranged somewhat similarly to the Intel x 86 architecture still used today, it was produced for 20 years, in spite of several attempts to replace it. It was a forerunner of the HP 9800 and HP 250 series of desktop and business computers. I totally dominated the electronic industry of hardware’s and had a huge with other companies involved with them.
