When was the last time IBM was relevant?

Years ago, I read that IBM held the patent to the 'cursor'.

I heard they own the ZIP algorithm.

IBM has patents up the rear. It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if Big Blue makes a couple bucks on EVERY car, camera, PC, cell phone, television sold in the world. Well, maybe 99% of them.
