Earlier quoted context omitted.

You're mistakenly conflating IBM's consulting business with the rest of their current technology, both hardware and software.

No, IBM has conflated their consulting service with the rest of their technology by running under the same brand name. If they want the benefits of sharing that brand between operations then they deserve the negatives that come along with it.

No, IBM has not done that. IBM Global Business Services and IBM Global Technical are their own business units.

I wish governments would just get on with it and open source their functionality for those of us who want to "serve our country"

Passively wishing does not tend to influence government policy.

Don't mistake my HN comment as being my _only_ action.
