* IBM and the Holocaust

During the 1930s, IBM's German subsidiary was its most profitable foreign operation, and a 2001 book, IBM and the Holocaust by Edwin Black, argues that Watson's pursuit of profit led him to personally approve and spearhead IBM's strategic technological relationship with the Third Reich.

Topics addressed include the Business Plot, where in 1933, General Smedley Butler exposed an alleged corporate plot against then U. S. President Franklin Roosevelt ; the tragedy of the commons ; Dwight D. Eisenhower's warning people to beware of the rising military-industrial complex ; economic externalities ; suppression of an investigative news story about Bovine Growth Hormone on a Fox News Channel affiliate television station ; the invention of the soft drink Fanta by the Coca-Cola Company due to the trade embargo on Nazi Germany ; the alleged role of IBM in the Nazi holocaust ( see IBM and the Holocaust ); the Cochabamba protests of 2000 brought on by the privatization of Bolivia's municipal water supply by the Bechtel Corporation ; and in general themes of corporate social responsibility, the notion of limited liability, the corporation as a psychopath, and the corporation as a person.

Three years before completion of his 2001 book, IBM and the Holocaust, Black began to put together what would ultimately become a team of more than 100 researchers, translators, and assistants to work on discovery and analysis of primary source documents written in German, French, and Polish.

OMA DRM is a Digital Rights Management ( DRM ) system invented by the Open Mobile Alliance, whose members represent mobile phone manufacturers ( e. g. Nokia, LG, Motorola, Samsung, Sony-Ericsson, BenQ-Siemens ), mobile system manufacturers ( e. g. Ericsson, Siemens, Openwave ), mobile phone network operators ( e. g. Vodafone, O2, Cingular, Deutsche Telekom, Orange ), and information technology companies ( e. g. Microsoft, IBM, Sun ).

ACM also sponsors other computer science related events such as the worldwide ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest ( ICPC ), and has sponsored some other events such as the chess match between Garry Kasparov and the IBM Deep Blue computer.

As an example, if one was trying to profit from a price discrepancy between IBM on the NYSE and IBM on the London Stock Exchange, they may purchase a large number of shares on the NYSE and find that they cannot simultaneously sell on the LSE.

Although Kildall preferred to leave the IBM affair in the past and to be known for his work before and afterward, he continually faced comparisons between himself and Bill Gates as well as fading memories of his contributions.

He accused IBM of contriving the price difference between PC-DOS and CP / M-86 in order to marginalize CP / M.

Midrange computer is a designation used by IBM for a class of computer systems which fall in between mainframes and microcomputers.

It was arguably responsible for the split between Microsoft and IBM, since IBM insisted that OS / 2, originally a joint venture between IBM and Microsoft, would run on a 286 ( and in text mode ).

Kermit was developed at Columbia University in 1981 to allow students to transfer files between IBM or DEC DECSYSTEM-20 mainframe computers and removable media on microcomputers ( initially Intertec Superbrains running CP / M ).

IBM mainframes used an EBCDIC character set and CP / M and DEC machines used ASCII, so conversion between the two character sets was one of the early functions built into Kermit.

A standard for MIDI over USB was developed in 1999 as a joint effort between IBM, Microsoft, Altec Lansing, Roland Corporation, and Philips.

The collaboration between IBM and Microsoft unravelled in 1990, between the releases of Windows 3. 0 and OS / 2 1. 3.

By 1995, Windows 95 negotiations between IBM and Microsoft which were already difficult stalled when IBM purchased Lotus SmartSuite which would have directly competed with Microsoft Office.

The IBM System / 360 ( S / 360 ) was a mainframe computer system family announced by IBM on April 7, 1964, and delivered between 1965 and 1978.

The design made a clear distinction between architecture and implementation, allowing IBM to release a suite of compatible designs at different prices.

Project Athena ( a joint project between Digital Equipment Corporation ( DEC ), MIT and IBM to provide easy access to computing resources for all students ) needed a platform-independent graphics system to link together its heterogeneous multiple-vendor systems ; the window system then under development in Carnegie Mellon University's Andrew Project did not make licenses available, and no alternatives existed.

Envisioned as a marriage between XyQuest technology and IBM marketing, the product was to be called Signature.

The 3Station's cost lay somewhere between that of an IBM PC clone and an IBM PC of the day.

When the German astronaut team was merged into a European Space Agency, he did not transfer, but resigned to work at IBM Germany.

Originally conceived to follow the UK Prestel specifications, and developed on contract by IBM Germany, Btx added a number of additional features before launch, including some inspired by the French Minitel service, to create a new display standard of its own, which in 1981 was designated the CEPT1 profile.

In 1962, during a sabbatical year in Switzerland, Linvill visited an IBM laboratory in Germany, where he observed a high speed printer that used a set of small pins — like hammers — to print letters onto strips of paper.
