The parent's point though is that this isn't the space IBM wants to be in. They're in the business of selling high margin, enterprise-y stuff that includes all the bells and whistles, so there's no reason for them to gobble up something like Rancher (RHAT's OpenShift solution is what they want to be selling already).
