HP/Compaq reminds me so much of Burroughs and Sperry's merger to create Unisys. It would be interesting to see if it plays out that way. The mainframe giants combined and practically died. Now two PC giants are combining. History repeating itself?

When you don't have a clue what to do, buy a catalog retailer just a few years after you scrapped that business (Sears/Lands End).

Sears & Penneys are going to be the retail equivalent of Burroughs and Sperry.
