| schestowitz[TR2] | <p>Its developers call Busybox the "Swiss Army knife" of embedded Linux, because in one relatively small tool, it implements not just a Unix-style shell, but also about 300 different commands that are normally external programs in their own right. As a result, it's often found inside devices that use Linux in very resource-constrained environments, such as consumer firewall/routers. </p> | Oct 06 13:13 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | " That sounds real good in theory, but do you really see mainframes as a service-only offering? I know that has been IBM's dream ever since the invention of the mainframe (have customers rent time-share services on IBM-premised hardware without customer ownership), but I've never seen the company be completely successful at it. | Oct 06 19:45 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | I think a more realistic scenario would be IBM shrinking even further than it already has to handle legacy and extremely large enterprise customers. Infrastructure would sell as usual, software would sell as usual, and consulting would provide services as usual. The only caveat would be that the company would be much smaller and much more focused. | Oct 06 19:45 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | The remaining customer base would simply go elsewhere, for IBM would have nothing to offer them. ISVs would do everything they could to migrate customers off of IBM platforms. | Oct 06 19:45 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | The case can be made for IBM to absorb “enterprise” infrastructure (approx 35-40% of infrastructure) into consulting and offer it as a service. The rest of infrastructure could easily be partnered off. A win/win for the CFO | Oct 06 19:45 |
