Hah, kind of like when Rackables became SGI.

  Wait, what?

    Rackables bought SGI (Silicon Graphics) and then renamed themselves "SGI". It was a sad day.

  This is just stupid. Rackable was already way better known brand in datacenters/cloud than SGI. Who nowadays even remembers SGI?

    HPC customers, so I assume that's Rackable's target market.

    Fine, fine...when NeXT was paid to take over Apple, if that helps you feel better. :)

  ...or when one 'Tera Computer Company' bought what was left of Cray from SGI, renamed itself Cray Inc., and released reworked versions of existing products under the Cray name.
