My contention is that had either candidate thought strategically, neither would have run for the office of president. ...

Dell + EMC: History Is Made

There isn't a sharper contrast to HP + Compaq than Dell + EMC. First, the reasons behind the mergers were very different. Dell + EMC wasn't an attempt to address a failing turnaround by buying another firm with a similar problem. Its purpose was twofold: to avoid the plague of hedge funds and institutional investors intent on breaking up companies to get faster profits; and to find a suitable replacement for Joe Tucci, who had been unable to get EMC's board to let him go. ...

Why Dell-EMC Won’t Follow in HP-Compaq’s Footsteps

So, unlike Compaq under HP, which fully disappeared, EMC will continue as a relatively independent company that Dell eventually will run. Joe Tucci, whom Dell is replacing, has wanted to retire for some time. Also, EMC is already an umbrella company with federated components, so Dell's takeover should have little impact on day-to-day externally facing operations. Internally it will impact -- but improve -- things like supply chain, because Dell arguably has one of the best in the world. ...
