   Thanks! I’m searching for the true IBM Blue, and 2718 maybe a good answer :)

   But FYI, in the Pantone iPhone application:

   2718U is RGB 106 135 219 CMYK 53 30 0 0 and

   2718C is RGB 92 136 218 CMYK 65 45 0 0

   Hi Michael, more info about IBM Blue Pantone 2718, in a older webpage to translate Pantone to RGB that I build a few years ago, and I not remembre the origin of data, the result is:

   rgb(91, 119, 204);

   You can try it at:

   Alex, I’m also looking for IBM’s corporate blue hex.

   I’ve have tried both your RGB(91, 119, 204) and Michael’s RGB(83, 120, 179) and compared them with a version of IBM’s logo: the RGB that is closer to the official one is Michael’s version.

   For ease of use in HTML/CSS: #5378B3.
