It used to be true that no one got fired for buying IBM. Now, I would laugh at any organization that chooses IBM.

Times can change.

to be fair their storage, and I mean their SANs, is still the best (excluding very expensive alternatives that are only really beating IBM in few limited scenarios).

I still like DB2, but only for banking/finance core stuff, and their mainframes are just unique machines, I'm very fond of them.
