IBM Steals A Play From Intel's Playbook
from the IBM-Inside? dept
IBM has decided that they need to do a better job marketing themselves as a components supplier. So, they must have been looking at their computers, seen the little Intel Inside stickers and though "aha!". IBM logos are going to start appearing on lots of different devices, starting with the Nintendo GameCube. I wonder how many people will actually notice? Of course, if I had said that about the Intel Inside program many years ago, I would have been very very wrong.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
