>dead telecommunications company with zero interesting assets
>ibm
>exists solely based on vague claims and ideas about e.g. AI and "the enterprise"
I really don't see this work in any way imaginable.

IBM exists because financial companies need their mainframes for all that legacy code they wrote four decades ago.

It's not even about being modern. And also, go back to "know your meme" so you can find out that "le" was ironic shitposting making fun of 4chan, but is now REDDIT. so gb2/reddit/, homo.

IBM gave up on professional electronics
Nokia isn't

>>56964031
It's not just about legacy code. It's mostly about security and that 100% uptime. Say what you will about IBM but their mainframes are ridiculously robust.

Nokia bought Alcatel. They were big in Europe but now they are even bigger. The way I see is they are just going to abuse the fuck out of their position inside Europe, use lobbying to make life hard for competition, especially those coming outside of Europe.

Case in point. http://uk.reuters.com/article/us-eu-alphabet-antitrust-exclusive-idUKKCN1213DJ
