Change

Yesterday NEC announced that they are going to cooperate with Lenovo Group in the personal computer business and build a joint corporation. This news was leaked several days ago, so I knew about it. However, it was announced formally today, and I was a little shocked because I had worked for NEC's PC business for twenty years. My former company will undergo a great change, although they said that the NEC brand will continue. 
On the other hand, I envy people who are in the company, because they will be able to experience the big change. I'm really interested in such a revolution. It must be hard but I can get a great deal from a cooperation with another company.
Actually, I missed another chance. The company that I worked for after NEC was combined with another company, two years later after I had left. My old colleagues mailed me saying that they were facing a different culture and working hard, but I wish I could have been there to tackle those problems. That is easier said than done though.
