| schestowitz[TR2] | In the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, IBM cared about quality. Then greed took hold. Ever since it's been downhill quality and innovation and uphill free cashflow (= downhill # of US employees). Hiring marketing writers from India is the best example of how much IBM cares about quality in their marketing materials. It's a shame considering the quality of the 8-bar logo and all the Eames' fine work for IBM. The shareholder is king now, mos | Mar 06 15:11 |
