Today, quite surprisingly, Apple and IBM have announced a cooperation focused on the enterprise. Among other things, enterprise-level Apple Care, a private cloud and more pervasive use of iOS devices for tasks other than calendar and communication tasks seems to be at the center. What do you guys think?

I wonder if IBM will start usurping accounts from Apple Consultants Network members now?

I would love it if Apple flat out bought a major stake in IBM. Tim could sit on the IBM board and Virginia could sit on the Apple board. Google is making major inroads with developing AI. Steve was right about the "Don't be Evil." is bullshit. With Apple's consumer presence, leveraging IBM's expertise in AI research could be financially beneficial to Apple and its shareholders.
