    Turning around a technology company has been historically rare.

    [...]

    Steve Jobs may have resurrected Apple, and IBM was able to reinvent itself from a P.C. company into a business-services firm.

Um....what? Wasn't IBM a business service firm that was distracted by PCs in the 80s/90s? They didn't reinvent themselves, they went back to their core business. Just another bunch of disruption bullshit. Reading such a blatant mistake makes me wonder if the author has any idea what they're talking about.
