Liked this commentary on HWP/CPQ merger:

Think about it -- big public companies really have no way to die, even if they've totally outlived their usefulness. Unlike people, who eventually grow old and expire, companies are effectively immortal. Have you ever heard of a public company that just said, "OK, game over, we're cashing in and giving the money back to the shareholders?" Never happens. Finance academics call this "the problem of exit." For companies with the problem of exit, getting acquired is the answer -- the corporate form of assisted suicide.
