Tue 15:17:35 │ 〖schestowitz[TR2〗 │] Censor the language needed to discuss obnoxious behaviour, and you don't get rid of that behaviour.

She is brilliant (3 MIT degrees all EE electrical engineering undergrad, Masters, PhD). Do I think it will happen with IBM's WEAK BOD board of directors? NO!!
Thu 01:41:13 │ 〖schestowitz[TR2〗 │] !!! IF it were to happen I think the stock would go up 10-15 points and I would be a big buyer.
Thu 01:41:13 │ 〖schestowitz[TR2〗 │] IBM HAS TO BE shopping POWER around to possible buyers. Red Hat does not know what POWER is. IBM no longer cares about AIX and IBM i. POWER COULD have been a good AI training and inference system but the story goes NVIDIA wanted big $$$$ to enable GPUs and Infiniband on Power10 so P10 flounders with no GPU and Infiniband support and a weak story about AI INFERENCING some day with the Spyre card that will run in z and Power.
