Ever felt they were trying to tell you something… According to the Wall Street Journal, former IBM Corp chairman John Akers is still technically an IBM employee, though he has lost his title, his board seat and his office at IBM’s Armonk, New York headquarters – he and his secretary have been quietly relocated to an IBM building in Stamford, Connecticut; we seem to recall something similar happening to an editor of the late lamented Datalink – first he was told he was no longer editor, but that there was a desk in Computing’s office – until Computing decided it needed it, whereupon a desk was found in the library, whereupon he resigned.
