(1) execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned's
capacity as a director of Hewlett-Packard Company (?HP?), any Forms 3,
4 and 5 or  any amendments thereto, in accordance with Section 16(a) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"),
and the rules thereunder;

(2) do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the
undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete the
execution of any such Forms 3, 4 or  5 and any amendments thereto and
the timely filing of such form with the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

(3) take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of
benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required by, the
undersigned, it being understood that the documents executed by such
attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned, pursuant to this Power
of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in his or her
discretion.

The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power
and authority to do and perform all and every act and thing whatsoever
requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of
the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and
purposes as such attorney-in-fact might or could do if personally
present, with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby
ratifying and confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or his or her
substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by
virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein
granted.  The undersigned acknowledges that the foregoing attorneys-in-
fact, in serving in such capacity at the request of the undersigned,
are not assuming, nor is HP assuming, any of the undersigned's
responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 with respect
to the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued
by HP, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing
delivered to the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney
to be executed as of this 23 day of May 2007.
