BOSTON - IBM withdrew its offer to buy Sun Microsystems for about $7 billion, clouding the prospects for a deal that would shake up the computing industry.
Talks were in their final stages in recent days, but IBM took its offer off the table after Sun terminated IBM's status as its exclusive negotiating partner, according to two people familiar with the situation. IBM was believed to be offering about $9.50 per share for Sun.
