Well not pivot in the current use where the entire company changes all of its direction, but 'pivot' in the sense that the new division becomes the company's primary focus.

They made everything from oscilloscopes to calculators, primarily for scientists and engineers. It isn't like they laid off oscilloscope designers to hire people for the calculator division.
