Hewlett-Packard: Let's Think About Financing Assets

I looked into this. The category is called 'long-term financing receivables AND 'other' assets". Note 11 of HP's 10Q in Q108 shows they implemented FIN48 which caused them to reclassify tax assets into this bucket. The company breaks out financing portfolio assets in its 10Q on page 58. and the assets are growing less than revenue growth in financing so nothing to worry about.
