The IBM of today isn’t what I think the other commenter was referring to.
In the 1970’s IBM was a behemoth. Yet IBM of that time was unable to translate that success meaningfully to personal PCs. In the realm of the personal PC it was Intel and Microsoft that dominated.
Similarly the Microsoft of the 2000’s was a behemoth that failed to translate that success to mobile computing.
I believe the other poster was trying to say that Google of today is like IBM of the 70’s or Microsoft of the 2000’s.
That being said IBM is different today than it was even a couple decades ago and Microsoft has changed a lot in recent years so maybe Google could become innovative again.
