Well Tiger Paw Mike Armstrong sees the IBM ($5 bln) deal differently :

" "For AT&T, today's announcement supports four areas we've targeted
for growth: global services, data networking, Internet Protocol
technology and network outsourcing through our AT&T Solutions
business," said AT&T CEO Michael Armstrong in a statement.

"The acquisition of IBM's global data network will accelerate our ability to
deliver IP-based services to global customers. It will give us a
sophisticated new platform for revenue growth."

Seems there will be more revs coming to both A T & T and IBM over the next five (5) years .

This deal was as predictable as tomorrow's dawn but I wonder what IBM will do with the $5 bln cash it is getting from A T & T ?
