The Compaq Evo is a series of business PCs (desktop and laptop) and thin clients made by Compaq and then Hewlett-Packard following the 2002 merger. The Evo brand was introduced by Compaq in May 2001 as a business-oriented brand. It replaced the Deskpro brand of desktops and the Armada brand of notebooks.[1] Evo was rebranded as HP Compaq which was used until 2008. It is not to be confused with the later Intel Evo branding for performant laptops.
