Sauce?

POWER9 is a pretty neat architecture, 8 way multithreading per core is nice.

They created a computer that was stupidly easy to clone and used their power to make this the defacto computer for all work related applications, thus opening the door to microsoft to cuck em and create the first intercompatible computer standard.

It's real

ok, but has it done anything of note in the 21st century?

IBM punchcard systems were used to categorize degenerates

They designed the mechanical computers that indexed and tracked jewish prisoners in nazi Germany so that they could be efficiently exterminated.

They invented all of Jow Forums's favorite fashion accessories and inspired them to read Wikipedia some more to better misinform themselves of all the trivia they are regurgitating to you in this thread.

IBM's entire business plan is to win lucrative contracts from government agencies, pay a bunch of college grads 3x more than the government workers to do less work, and stretch the contract and move the goal posts indefinitely so everyone gets a sip of those sweet sweet tax dollars. Then when they don't provide a finished product, they point at an expertly crafted contract forcing the agency to extend it further.

Everyone wins but the taxpayer.

Henry Ford did not invent the fucking car but can you honestly say that he didn't contribute anything of value to society

You're just going to deny arguments with your "but that was long ago" bullshit. So please just tell us what companies you think are the good ones.

Watson is shit? You obviously don't work with or have anything to do with machine learning or AI.

atm's
dram memory
floppy disks
actual hard drives
ars system for booking seats
the very sense of a VM
watson
the crypto anchor
the very being of a PC
lasik surgery

and many others that i cant remember

I almost got a job with them. Did I dodge a bullet?

>ITT: ignorant OP getting BTFO

You don't see useful applications because you are just a lowly consumer. IBM positions Watson for enterprise, instead of making doodads to spy on you, they sell Watson to companies like auto makers to add AI and an assistant to your car. IBM values enabling businesses to get things done, Google just wanted to sell your data

Based blue company

Isn't IBM just a professional tax payer swindler these days by "winning" lucrative and obnoxiously overfunded contracts to do pretty much nothing

You're thinking of Elon musk

They basically invented magnetic disks, the PC architecture you're actually using, Power architecture along with motorola. Also they're the one supplying the mainframes that are the core of many businesses' IT infrastructure.
>Why are they bringing Red Hat, and thus all of Linux and Open Source, down with them?
Bringing linux down? Good riddance! Linux is a cancer to the Unix world. AT&T and BSD are the one that contributed the most.
Also redhat is now pajeet central.
Tabulating machines aren't really computers, back then it was the guy operating mechanical calculators that was called a computer.

>AT&T and BSD are the one that contributed the most.
He says as he's benefitting from Red Hat's work, post your setup and I'll point out which of them are Red Hat's contribution

I work at IBM. AMA

>ATM, the magnetic strip, the hard drive,
I just realized couldn't you hack together a system to read magnetic tape with a pos card machine rather than spending $5000 on a tape machine?
Might help out archiveteam

Thinkpads were good machines, albeit lock down to all hell and back when IBM made them.

My first computer was an ibm ps/2. So I will always have a bit of nostalgia for them in that regard.

I broke off one wire from T42 charging port.
are they just 2x minus and 2x plus?

>IBM did not invent quantum computing

I challenge you to find an article written on quantum algorithms earlier than 1984.
Oh wait.
You can't.

I said "of note." Its cool that it can play jeopardy but all of the claims made about this fucking thing have been hot air.

It's notable enough to have its own wikipedia article
