A report this week suggested the Australian operations of financial services specialist Aviva would not renew a key outsourcing contract with Hewlett-Packard when it expires this November.
Financial services giant Aviva has started to sign key ICT services contracts as it breaks up a larger outsourcing deal formerly held by Hewlett-Packard.
HP will provide help-desk service to Microsoft employees and contractors in a deal worth tens of millions of dollars.

At AU$599, the Photosmart C8180 sits in Hewlett-Packard's lineup as one of its most expensive All-in-One (AIO) players. With a suite of features, it's not without a few missteps.
