| schestowitz[TR2] | <p>Wait, you haven’t heard of QNX? Let me explain—it’s not your typical OS for everyday computing needs. Instead, it is a real-time operating system (RTOS) known for its microkernel architecture, primarily designed for embedded systems that require high reliability, stability, and performance. QNX Software Systems originally developed it and was later acquired by BlackBerry in 2010. </p> | Nov 13 14:50 |

(yes IBM SW division is shrinking quickly due to the new SW purchases, but also due to AI automating the legacy SW stack).

IBM will gladly sacrifice cloud revenue if it can be replace via Enterprise Hybrid SW revenue. You are watching that happen even as we speak as Infrastructure shrinks every quarter.

| schestowitz[TR2] | " IBM is following the BUNCH into obscurity and computing history. Each member of the BUNCH was a major manufacturer in the computing world in the 1970s and even the 1980s, but they abandoned manufacturing and the R+D that goes along with it, in favor of software development and consulting, marketed via the "enterprise relationships" you speak of. | Nov 13 21:38 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | IBM is not a leader anymore, and it is no longer trying to be one. Its legacy mainframe business is still viable for as long as it lasts, but aside from incremental improvements we probably won't see much action. IBM's future, if it has any, will probably be in niche applications like HR and payroll processing and the like...stuff that is tailor-made for mainframes. The technological leadership (new systems, new architectures, new | Nov 13 21:38 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | designs) of things will be left to companies like NVidia, Google and Microsoft, among others. IBM doesn't have the fight in it anymore, and soon they will no longer have the money to compete on any serious playing field. " | Nov 13 21:38 |
