Seems like I'm not the only one who thinks the Lenovo deal to buy IBM's computer business is a bad thing for ThinkPad fans and laptop users in general. James Gaskin at http://www.ITWorld.com describes the deal by saying 'management stupidity has no boundaries'. Bill Howard at PC Magazine is ever so slightly more hopeful, but still thinks the ThinkPad R&D team might start heading for the door, or at least Austin.
Maybe this idea from Gaskin is better late than never, '…let's go to Armonk and whack two of every three executives with a pink slip and see if the PC division can make a profit now. Bet it will."
