Well that mystery is solved. Sort of. The big brouhaha over IBM's departing blade server director, Mark Papermaster who was going to join forces with the PA Semi people at Apple and take over the chip making world?
Nope.
He's going to be in charge of Apple’s iPod® and iPhone™ hardware. I guess that is more fun than blade servers. It is strange that IBM is suing as Papermaster's new role shouldn't affect IBM at all.
It also marks the departure of Tony Fadell, "father of the iPod".
From Apple:
Mark Papermast
