Most of the 5 petabytes is a model used to determine if your sharpies are counterfeit.

They remotely brick your Sharpies even if they are original because of a bug in the software

Don't give them ideas.

Joking aside, I don't believe HP developed this product, they almost certainly bought the company that makes it.

My hunch?

Seen these things before.

I doubt it has been DRMd to hell yet, and I doubt they upgraded to show PC LOAD LETTER at all times, but why did they add this to their portfolio?

I think they did, actually. (I worked at HP for 19 years, and I know the guy in their Barcelona site who started it.)

Don't forget the complementary installation of Norton Antivirus

Weirdly it turns out to be cheaper/faster than paying a human being to do the same thing in use cases where you have large concrete slabs with complex walls/casework layout

It's cloud based, yep :D

do you have sharpie that won't grind down to zero on concrete after 3ft ?

Not on genuine HP concrete.

Hp concrete actually exists

Hopefully they're using something like a paint pen with a roller and not a Sharpie the way you're thinking of it.

parent is the one who suggested sharpies.

i'll actually bet on some variety of inkjet/spray as it will better deal with surface imperfections and won't wear out
