Big Blue changing colors

It's official. The Chinese now own IBM's PC Group division. Read about it at Cnet news. If they maintain the quality product standard that IBM has obtained over the past years and ask reasonable prices success should happen. China has not been all embracing of technology. Recently, it was discovered that the Chinese government censures Google, editing out things they think unfit for their citizens. Big Oriental Brother? Wonder if this merger is a world domination ploy or just 'bidness' as usual? We'll see, we'll see...

"Computers are magnificent tools for the realization of our dreams, but no machine can replace the human spark of spirit, compassion, love, and understanding."
- Louis Gerstner, CEO, IBM
