Hewlett-Packard said yesterday that it was acquiring Compaq Computer for $25
billion in stock in a bold move to grow as the computer industry struggles with
shrinking sales.

The merger, if completed, would produce a company with total revenue only
slightly less than that of I.B.M., the largest computer company. But both
Hewlett-Packard and Compaq have recently seen revenue slide and profit plunge
because of a industry slowdown, and both have announced job cuts.


A correction was made on 
Sept. 10, 2001
: 

A front-page article on Tuesday about Hewlett-Packard's plan to acquire Compaq
Computer referred incorrectly to a product developed by Intel and
Hewlett-Packard for servers. The product, which Compaq said in June that it
would support, is a first in a new line of processors, called Itanium, not an
operating system.
