You never hear “Aw man, the new owners are awesome! Everything’s so much better now!”, it’s always a downgrade, usually a significant one. It’s never about improvement and always about cutting costs and leaving the buyee company to die.

    Fwiw, my uncle worked for Motorola, and he was really happy when Lenovo bought them out from Google.

    I think that was mostly just because he didn’t have to put up with the Google/ATAP techbros anymore.
