Dell, HP Ban Staff Travel to Mumbai

Dell Inc and Hewlett-Packard Co, the world’s two largest computer suppliers, limited staff movement in India after attacks in Mumbai killed at least 80 people.

“Until this crisis subsides and we have given you further notice, we are canceling all travel by Dell employees into India for the next 48 hours at minimum,” John Schaeffer, vice president of global security at Dell, said in an e-mail to staff this morning Asia time.

Hewlett-Packard, the world’s largest PC supplier, closed its Mumbai office today and prohibited its staff from traveling to the city, according to an e-mail from Joanne Tan, a Singapore-based spokeswoman for the company.
