They never owned Lenovo. They wanted to get rid of general consumer stuff which is costly both money and image wise. A mainframe company which invented the hard disk doesn't want their brand next to "death star". As a person who licensed OS/2 Warp 3 and even used ibm.net ISP, trust me they have no clue about little things.
Willing to admit my ignorance. Thanks for the info.
