Stephen DiFranco at APC 2011

Hewlett-Packard held its Americas Partner Conference 2011 event in Las Vegas last week, giving its partners an introduction to new CEO Léo Apotheker, a preview of technologies yet to come, and details of its roadmap to move HP into the cloud.

Partners found out that webOS will fit firmly in HP’s channel strategy and got a chance to get their hands on the upcoming TouchPad tablet, and virtually all of the company’s top business unit executives offered their two cents on how their business will evolve in a changing market.

From Léo the CÉO to guest entertainer Darius Rucker, here are 16 scenes from this year’s APC.
