Leading the opposition against her daring plan to rescue the $40 billion-dollar company from declineโwhich included the $20 billion acquisition of archrival Compaqโwas Walter Hewlett, son of HPโs late co-founder and defender of โThe HP Way.โ Not since Wall Street operatives battled over the fate of RJR Nabisco had a takeover drama so captivated the media and the public.
