Cloud Platform Box.net Partners with HP

Cloud storage platform Box.net announced a partnership with HP today to bring the company's offerings to select HP desktops.

Starting today, HP Elite and HP Pro desktop business PCs users have access to offers from Box that include increased storage capacity and enterprise synchronization for use in collaboration and content management in the cloud.

Users that purchase a new HP Compaq Pro 6500 or 6200 Series PC will receive a free Box account with 10 GB of storage - double the size of a typical Box account - with the option to upgrade to additional capacities at a reduced annual rate. Box.net is also offering those purchasing a new HP Elite 8200 Series PC a Box account with unlimited storage and sync at no cost for one year.

Box.net was listed in Website Magazine's 50 Top Sites for Web Designers in March 2011.
