Large contracts are attractive and the acquisition is brings in quick cash. IBM RedHat leaves me with another feeling.

Intel subcontracted Cray on Argonne's Aurora, and Cray just won ORNL's Frontier about a week ago. Those are quite short-term projects, with tremendous ambitions and an expected delivery date in 2021, 2 years from now. Such an acquisition surely can't be done without an impact on such monumental projects, and I'm wondering what route HPE will follow there.
