Microsoft's Greg Sullivan displaying the "Troy" PC during WinHEC 2004.

The "Troy" PC was a prototype personal computer developed by Hewlett-Packard in collaboration with the Microsoft Corporation.

Unlike the other PC concepts developed by HP and Microsoft, such as the "Athens" PC, the "Troy" PC did not include a specialized keyboard with built-in controls for media and other features; the controls are instead integrated into the PC console. This decision was made in response to customer feedback.[1]

According to HP's Brian Schmitz, the "Troy" PC would be the last major PC prototype unveiled before the company would release an actual product.[1]
