If HP also restricts customers' ``fair use'' rights -- the ability to make personal copies and quote from others' works -- guess that's someone else's problem.

You could make a good arguement that the various entertainment companies don't have any more respect for consumer rights than the "Napster" generation has for copyrights.

No I couldn't. Maybe you'd like to try because the guy who wrote this article failed miserably.
