Why are people still referring to "Red Hat" instead of IBM? Back when that sale was announced the talk was that Red Hat's culture wouldn't change, they'd be operating independently from IBM, so it made sense to still speak of Red Hat. Well there has evidently been a dramatic shift in Red Hat's culture; do people still believe this "independent subsidiary" stuff?

The Brand Asset is still going strong, for now. IBM'll burn through it soon enough.

I remember that acquihire like it was yesterday... I was sad to see my $RHT shares liquidated.
