Hypothetical: IBM decides to get back into the PC business, for whatever reason.Their lawyers pour over their contract with Lenovo, until they find a loophole, a trademark that they forgot to transfer.Coming soon in early 2025: The IBM PCjr 2!

@foone I dont think they would use the "Personal Computer" label at this point. These are all "devices" lately, and they are anything but personal(unless custom hardware). The cellphonification of the personal computer demands it.

@foone Now that you mention it, they're pretty well positioned to make a compelling alternative to the nightmare that are is Windows while giving the Appleverse some competition too.Imagine a BlueBox running RedHat. Built like tanks, which is in their wheel house, and competes with Apple. Great kernel support for all the carefully curated hardware...Maybe open GPFS while they're at it.Maybe the year of the Linux desktop really could be more than a meme.

@foone Running the embedded BlueHat OS. On a room temperature refrigerated 'quantum' chip, using a heat transfer for self powering?Will it come as a see through headband?I will wait for the clones. :anarchy: Innovation first of course. :2001:

@foone since BIOS is already dead maybe they could do ARM or RiSC-V and create another 40 years of de facto standard hardware interface.It's like half life, they have to do something revolutionary.
