                  Timing seems a bit odd, are they going to partner swap?

                    This is just going to be one of many of these types of splits. Companies are opting for smaller leaner business units, splitting large entities is actually probably better for them and even HP as well as the ones to come.

                      Splitting makes sense. Keeping companies from having too much infrastructure is generally a good thing. Just important to make sure that you don't break up heavily aligned units. HP's split seems bad, Symantec's seems good.
