Blackstone filed a q-&-a with Hollywood's Jeffrey Katzenberg on Hewlett Packard's $350,000 multi-screen system while throwing in a clip of free publicity for Katzenberg's latest Shrek release. He also gave a plug to Cisco Systems. Margaret Hooshmand, a personal assistant there helps her Silicon Valley boss Marthin De Beer from her Texas home with the firm's cheaper $80,000 single screen system.
