Steve Mills, the long time exec in charge of software at IBM, is
featured in an article today in the wall street journal.   The article
does a very good job of explaining IBM's approach to growing its
software footprint thru acquistions. Looks like Mills is 100% sales
and marketing. Great for profits but chilling none the less. It helps
explain why IBM has done nothing on its own initiative, core OS,
language and run time framework wise since the days of ILE, OS/2 and
SAA.
