Fiorina gave an embroidered account of how Hewlett and Packard sold their first invention, an audio oscillator, to Walt Disney Studios for the soundtrack of Fantasia, a story that most HP employees know by heart.
In Fiorinas telling, Whitworth said, Walt Disney invited two unknown Palo Alto engineers to Los Angeles to discuss making a machine for the movie soundtrack he had in his head. It was pure fiction.
Walt did not get on the phone and ask Bill and Dave to come down, Whitworth said. (Actually, as Packard recounted in his 1995 memoir, The HP Way, Disneys chief sound engineer found the device at a technical conference in Portland.)
Whitworth asked Fiorinas speech writer where the story came from. He said, I dont know.
