Technology giant IBM reported its third quarter results on October 17, and extended a stunningly long losing streak with its twenty-second consecutive quarter of declining sales. In four years, quarterly revenue has dropped 18 percent. As they say on Twitter: Sad! The problems at the computer giant are due mostly to the transition in the corporate world from onsite facilities to cloud computing, in other words shifting their computing needs to centralized operators like Amazon Web Services. IBM is a laggard in that business.
