IBM Looking To Sell Its Semiconductor Business

Posted by Soulskill on from the offloading-all-the-hardware dept.

jfruh writes "Having already gotten out of the low-end server market, IBM appears to be trying to get out of the chip business as well. The company currently manufactures Power Architecture chips for its own use and for other customers. Big Blue wants to sell off its manufacturing operations, but will continue to design its own chips."

    If only Dice was willing to sell it's slashdot business to someone who understood the audience it has served historically.

    If Dice Holdings have given up with Slashdot would they at least consider selling it back to the community?

    If we can crowdfund the purchase Slashdot can be run by the community or partner with an organisation to run it?

    Oh yeah fuck the beta.

    I'll tell you what: if you assholes continue with this crap, I'll not only "join" your "slashcott" from 2/10 - 2/17 -- I'll join it for good. The caveat is that I'll be doing so to avoid people like you, who are polluting discussions with valid complaints in an inappropriate way.

    (As implied above, I don't like the beta. Yet I appreciate that it is a beta. I also appreciate that there are better ways to provide input to the developers.)
