Isn't it now into four?

In 1999, they got rid of the test equipment, creating Agilent.  Seemed sad 
that they didn't keep the name with the test equipment, but I guess by 
then most people knew the name because of consumer equipment.

HP is now splitting again, the "home computers" and printers in one, and
the rest in another.  Though this time both kept the name, sort of.
