I'm a bit skeptical of the claim that Apple has more Datacenter capacity than IBM. Can anyone validate that? IBM owns Softlayer, and had significant datacenter

IBM owns Softlayer, and had significant datacenter footprint before that acquisition available through SmartCloud (deprecated).

Also, I can't help but feel that this conveniently ignores the fact that this deal makes IBM able to Procure Apple Devices (iOS and Mac)for their customers, and more importantly will allow companies to Buy/Finance those devices through IBM Global Finance. Then, with the extended Applecare, those same enterprises will be able to have on-site AppleCare fulfillment/repair/replacement for those devices.
