Warren Buffett buys IBM stake with $10.7bn investment

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-15728306 interesting to say the least .. i hope other tech companies are apprehensive of the move

if 5.4% is 10.7bn 100% = 198.2bn ..... The guy can buy Kenya a number of times with what he paid for 5.4% On Tue, Nov 15, 2011 at 2:44 PM, Daniel Kamau <kamau.daniel@gmail.com>wrote:
