I had no idea they even have this kind of money today. Was interesting to browse through the history for a bit

Siemens is still huge in everything related to mechanical engineering. Need a train? Siemens is probably involved. Food processing? Siemens parts somewhere for sure.

Siemens has their fingers in an extreme number of pies, and they’re buying other companies all the time. And not just physical parts, they own a large number of engineering software brands too.

I suppose they were using Altair’s whole portfolio anyways so they just bought them.

Semi-jokes aside, it looks like a good investion.

People still pay that much for 8-bit S-100 machines?
