Compaq has settled a dispute with RLX Technologies, a Texas server
manufacturer sued by the computer giant in February alleging
misappropriation of trade secrets, propriety information and unfair
competition. The companies are keeping the terms of the settlement
confidential.
Compaq sued RLX after it recruited Compaq executives and,
according to the lawsuit, they improperly divulged Compaq’s design
secrets relating to highly efficient, so-called “ultradense,”
servers.
Both companies are due to release these products later this
year, which are expected to accommodate more than three times
current processing power in limited space.
