Computer chip and software maker Broadcom says it has cleared all regulatory hurdles and plans to complete its $69 billion acquisition of cloud technology company VMware on Wednesday.
This will go about as well as broadcom’s acquisition of Symantec (not well).
If you can get rid of vmware, you will have to, and if you can’t, you’ll ship buckets of benjamins to broadcom and in return they might keep your company alive.
I would say it probably won’t go any worse than being bought by EMC, then by Dell, but at the time they were a darling mostly left alone. Now they’re kind of a dying market.
