IBM helped pioneer information technology over the years, and it stands today at the forefront of a worldwide industry that is revolutionizing the way in which enterprises, organizations and people operate and thrive.The pace of change in that industry, of course, is accelerating, and its scope and impact are widening. In these pages, you can trace that change from the earliest antecedents of IBM, to the most recent developments. You can scan the entire IBM continuum from the 19th century to the 21st or pinpoint -- year-by year or decade-by-decade -- the key events that have led to the IBM of today. We hope that you enjoy this unique look back at the highly textured history of the International Business Machines Corporation.

@CourtneyWilliams24 Not really, depends on the specific department, but in general they do as much opensource as they smooch with Intel.

PowerPC will never die, it is really a wonderful chip.

I've been following the Power7's development for a long time now, it honestly looks to be the most impressive single chip I've ever seen. Its too bad that IBM doesn't make consumer CPU's, this thing would rock everything on the playing field (but cost a small fortune).

They should throw one of those babies in the PS4 :-P

Another machine from IBM to help set up shop for the coming antichrist!
