True. I was thinking of the (apparently) brief window in time about 20
years ago when IBM seemed to have turned over new leaf. At that time,
they were investing heavily in Linux and open standards and contributing
in a positive way. IBM seems now to have gone back to its usual
behavior. However, it still has fewer microsofters working inside it
than Google which is reported to have over 12k inside now.
