How about a conspiracy theory. IBM spawned both MSFT and INTC, then ran into serious trouble after "taking their eye off the ball" in defending against their Antitrust suit.

IBM has a smaller Market Cap than either MSFT or INTC.

IBM has been rumoured to be well connected with the administration for decades.

Wouldn't IBM be the biggest beneficiary if the FTC tied MSFT's and INTC's hands?

Just a thought...
