Mergers Red Herring Would Like To See
from the starting-rumors-because-there's-no-news dept
Apparently, Red Herring has run out of KP-backed startups to hype, because they’re so bored they’re simply making up media mergers they’d like to see. They say it would be good to see AOL by RealNetworks, Sony buy Tivo, and Charter Communications buy MGM. All of these probably make sense to some degree, but it still seems like an odd article to write – as none of these have actually been rumored.

IBM + Apple
I would like to see IBM buy Apple. IBM could use Apple’s industrial design for their boxes and Aqua ontop of their UNIX. Apple would get a better source of PPC chips (since motorola is rumored to want to terminate that portion of their business).
