Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard were friends and fellow graduates of Stanford University. Following their graduation from Stanford,
the two founded the electronics firm Hewlett-Packard Co. in 1938. Their first product - the resistance-capacity audio oscillator

and expanded later into the realm of computers and their related peripherals, most notably desk top printers.
