I’ve often wondered what you would get if you combined Apple and IBM. The two companies have little overlap today in either customers or products, and both have what the other lacks to grow their respective markets significantly. While the cultural issues would likely make such a merger not only inadvisable but impossible to actually do, both firms could learn a lot from the other. So, I’m not suggesting the two companies will merge, though stranger things could happen, but I thought it would be fun to showcase how each could benefit from the other.
