		<description>Hi Sramana,

After the Sun Microsystems merger fiasco I question IBM&#039;s current M&amp;A tactics.

http://danielnenni.com/2009/04/30/eda-fail-tsmc-win-ibm-fail-oracle-win/

My professional experience with IBM also suggests serious problems with egos and underestimating the competition.

But yes, the Cisco / IBM thing is very interesting.
