This was the pre-Gerstner era of the “Baby Blues”: Lexmark, AdStar, Pennant, Eduquest, Advantis/ISSC, and some others I’ve forgotten. In the end IBM spun off Lexmark, Federal Systems (to Loral), AdStar never spun out but was the division sold to Hitachi. Lexmark was “small” printers and keyboards, Pennant was the room sized beasts. Advantis became IBM Global Network, sold to AT&T in 2000.
