I just ran on to this article and I have to say a found it interesting how Qualcomm's president Cristiano Amon spoke favorably about IBM's acquisition of RedHat, calling it the peak into the future. I’m surprised that the leader of such a big tech company doesn't have a clue what a senseless and over expensive move this was, so I will go with the explanation that he was just trying to be polite while speaking in the media.
