I didn't think GE was bought for millions. GE is selling its light bulb division. GE is still the massive GE corporation worth many billions. But it won't be the same without that stensiled "GE light bulb.

GE originated in Schenectady, NY. They pioneered radio transmissions. The building is still there on Erie Blvd.
