Currently, IDF computers are accessed by a smart card inserted into a special apparatus connected to the computer."

According to whoprofits.org, this means that HP has designed a permit system that further entrenches apartheid into the lives of the Palestinian people, while providing security and services to the Israeli military and government institutions: subjugating the Palestinian people to constant humiliation in the life of occupation.

I've undergone hp training and I'm currently working on one of HP's facilities here in our country. Just by reading your description, all that I can say is our facility is really far behind compared to Israel but I wish that in coming years that we would also be just as advanced as other facilities.

HP is a good example that practices business continuity, their company never stops innovating. From personal computers to printers and now network devices. The creative department of that company is top-notch.

I really want to work with a reputable company such as HP. That is the reason why I need to know a lot of things on computer technology.

I agree with Valerie. Aside from being reputable, HP has been great to their employees. They have great salary and incentives. They also send their employees to seminars to increase their knowledge.
