[ltp] IBM to sell its PC business

[Don Perley]

Don't moan and groan too much about how quality doesn't sell in this 
case.. Isn't Thinkpad the market leader?

Of course they aren't just selling the laptop business, but PC's overall.

As one of my co-workers pointed out years ago.. there were more IBM 
manufactured parts in a Mac than in an IBM brand PC.  Macs are still 
using IBM processors, though the RAM and hard drive business have 
already been sold off.
