I missed it twice. Farhan’s report of the event tell me that Karachi one was the best to attend, but I missed that as was in Islamabad. And in Islamabad I couldn’t attend due to professional engagements.
Anyways glad to know that they have taken the criticism positively to improve on what they lacked.

Got a Reply from Mr Khalid of Emagine – Doc don’t worry there will be more opportunities to Rip and Slash , btw how was wolf petting at Hangol

Hi Farhan,

I did read it. I even tweeted you back with thanks for the honest review. As I said yesterday, when you put your brand out there for bloggers and social media, you have to toughen up your skin to take some hard questions.

I enjoyed your review as it gives me great feedback for the next event and how to make it much better. Our goal of having the event is achieved from the conversation we had during the meetup and the comments being made on twitter, facebook and individual blogs. We want to learn and make our brand better in Pakistan.

Cheers for the review and if I can be of any assistance to you in the future, with HP or outside of HP, please feel free to let me know.

Best,

Khalid Muhammad

Hilarious report – THANK YOU for sharing it – I was at Hingol enjoying the rough terrains using a PANASONIC TOUGHBOOK –

By the looks of how HP created this disaster I think they need to chop some green head real quick and real soon – attitude never wins friends

Id have loved to see Mr Green go Green – (but I feel you should quote the name of the gentleman regardless – If he represented HP on a public platform then its pubilc – if he acted dumb then its HP which will suffer NOT protect a stuck up

Damn Im so sad that I missed this event – depressed more so since I missed the ripping and lashing that went on

Why look at the shirt , his face turned green in last snap , when Faisal commented on Acer having a Ferrari – I agree the Panelist did a good job on handling the discussion and Khalid not only handled the discussion well and also kept his cool which Mr Green lost and do you think there will be a next time after all this

The guy in the green shirt (which is now appearing yellow in the pics BTW ) screwed up the whole event. I think if those 3 panelists weren’t there for HP, then they couldn’t have possibly defended themselves in front of the attendees.. Though Khalid did an excellent job, but still he wasn’t sure on which processor those netbooks were running despite of organizing 2 other similar events already!

Nice effort, but they’ll need to do a lot more better than this if they are serious about capturing the market!
