Dell Inc. and private-equity firm Silver Lake will buy data-storage company EMC
Corp for roughly $67 billion in cash and stock, marking the biggest technology-industry takeover ever.
The $33.15-a-share price tag represents a 28% premium over EMC’s closing price states Wall street journal.
VMware, a pioneer in virtualization software in which EMC owns about an
80% stake, will remain a publicly traded company with Dell as
controlling shareholder. Hope the pending deal of Broadcom
Corp by Chip maker Avago Technologies
Ltd. for $37 billion agreement will happen soon
.
Its twice as biggest than whatsapp acquisition also bigger than Compaq-HP deal
The common point is DELL, EMC, VMWARE is betting upon the same technology. "Virtualization"
This will add value and make some changes in this space. Added RSA a premier Infosec product also add value since RSA is one of the leader in GRC space.
Whats the next game changing plan DELL ??
