"That's why we are so gay!" - International Business Machines

This is a very quick post to congratulat a colleague of mine who recently secured a position with Internation business machines current stock price... $84.40


I know how much they hate this, we once did some work for them, we wanted to include their logo in a single presentation expounding the partnership and it had to be checked by their legal team... that took too long so we dropped the logo from the slide... completely pointless.

I would like to draw everyone attention to this webpage, a meme I first discovered via, Bob Cringely in the televised "Triumph of the Nerds" , I then read the book.


Bit of old skool IBM.

On that I would like to remind my troll friend of this fantastic quote from this sacred reference... sung to Jingle Bells....

IBM, Happy men, smiling all the way. Oh what fun it is to sell our products night and day. IBM, Watson men, partners of T. J. In his service to mankind -- that's why we are so gay!

Well speak for yourself! ....and oh yeah good luck.
