China's biggest computer maker, Lenovo Group, said Wednesday it has acquired a majority stake in International Business Machines Corp.'s personal computer business for $1.25 billion, one of the biggest Chinese overseas acquisitions ever. Is it a joke? It is not April Fool's Day yet.

Is it a joke? It is not April Fool's Day yet It wasn't that long ago that IBM was one of the 5 largest employers in the United States.
I don't know what is more sickening.
The fact that now it's being sold off to the chicoms.
Or the fact that companies like IBM are no longer our biggest employers. In fact, the two biggest "private" employers in the US are Walmart and McDonalds.
Welcome to the New World Order.
