You can assume anything you want about anyone's knowledge. If you expect someone to lie to you because he works for HP, it's irrelevant whether he is a sale rep or not. The only spouses, friends or relatives on hp.com are also HP employees. HP is a profit making company. It has rules about freeloading off the company unlike colleges that are much more indulgent in letting people abuse their facilities.
