Years ago I worked for a software startup that was acquired by HP. At some point after our acquisition, we had presentations from various directors. I'll never forget the presentation from someone in the printer division. He was gloating about printer ink sales, how the printer division was a cash machine, and then he made this arm-pumping motion as he verbalized the sound effect of a cash register drawer opening: "cha-ching." It was gross. Nothing from him about technology, or the HP way, or making the best printers, or solving customer problems. Just "how can we wring more cash out of people?"

I didn't stay at HP very long. It was during the Mark Hurd era and it was a company being run by backstabbing sociopaths.
