Lighthearted retort: And web browsers will still be slow.

Slightly more serious retort: I'm not aware of any brands from 300 years ago, I'd be surprised if any of IBMs customers survive, let alone enough to keep IBM as a going concern.

Btw when you start folding the space time mesh, terahertz figures just become marketing numbers, what you really want to know is how many parsecs it can do the Kessel run in.

You might be, you just don't realize that they're hundreds of years old.

For example, the insurance company Lloyds of London is fairly well-known around the globe. It's 333 years old.

I suppose brand yes, but it's not really a company. If you want to go down that route The Church of England, and indeed England are 'Brands'
