Chapter 171 Fake IBM
At the beginning of the new year, William White is thinking about how to swallow NBC and Disney cheaply, and a large number of garage companies such as the carp across the river, the small machine company is a special one.
As we all know, IB is the name of IB, and it is very coincidental that the first three letters of the small machine company are also, this company that is still messing around in the garage actually calls itself IB.
You're international, then I'm small, and it's not a big deal.
For the personal PC market, IB's judgment has indeed gone awry, and now it is not only going to be slapped in the face by Wall Street, but also laughed at by a group of companies in a garage.
And that damn Apple, who actually regarded himself as an industry leader, and that ill-intentioned White Software, no matter what software came out, it was always the Apple system that was first released, and he was ashamed to say that the system was stable.
Well, this is actually giving the blue giant eye medicine, they really don't understand, how William White knows that their system is unstable, this is the rhythm of greeting the waist eye!
They actually know that Motorola's 6700 has been released, and this thing is actually the same as the market expects, which is the castrated version of the 6.
The 32-bit channel has been canceled, and the CPU frequency has been reduced, and the performance is far worse than 6, but so what, the price is very cheap!
Now Makula is also struggling with what chipset this Lisa computer uses, as William White said, it is easy to pull eggs when the steps are big.
6 is not really a 32-bit processor, the performance is more powerful than 6700, but it is a pity that the current memory is so expensive, you simply can't install more than one megabyte of memory.
"Jobs, I think William White was right, 32-bit channels were meaningless until big memory wasn't widespread. ”
"Makura, that bastard has his own interests at heart, and if we lower Lisa's specifications, we must not be IB's opponents. ”
"However, this price is too expensive right now, and it will be problematic. ”
"It shouldn't be fine, after all, the performance has improved so much, and it is reasonable to be a little more expensive. ”
Is it a little more expensive? After knowing the news, William White was very speechless, you have more than 10,000 US dollars, and you still say that it is a little more expensive.
"Tom, don't worry about Apple, they've been carried away by success, it's time to sober them up, pay attention to Wang An and Kang Maoda, and tell them that more than 3,000 dollars will be miserable. ”
"Okay, boss, let's work on the other systems first. ”
"Well, did SDOS come out? Tell the Blue Giant that we'll need at least six months. ”
"Okay. ”
16-bit CPU, more than 8-bit processors are still quite a lot, but the development of memory has been delayed, 128KB really can't play the advantages of CPU, at least 512KB is needed.
The crux of the problem is that now 256KB is considered high-tech, and 512 is still provincial, it is impossible in these two years, even if the research and development is successful, the price will be desperate.
A trillion, you say?
No kidding, this thing doesn't belong to a personal PC.
The 16-bit CPU didn't live much in history, and Apple's second-generation machine was still used in the 90s, so this thing didn't sell much.
There are more than 10 million computers with 8-bit processors on the market, and more than 5 million Apple second-generation machines alone, but the Lisa computer is sad, and it is unknown how many will be sold, and the number should be very rare.
Not to mention Apple, even the blue giant did not sell too much, the main reason is that the price and performance do not match.
The current second-generation Apple is 6600, which is far more powerful than in history, and if the blue giant and Apple do not change, their sales will definitely be lower than in history.
This is actually an opportunity, and it is a pity that instead of seizing this opportunity, Apple has done all kinds of deaths.
The Lisa computer is ridiculously expensive, Old Joe's Macintosh is even more ridiculous, you don't even have a hard drive, and what kind of graphical interface do you have, buddy just want to ask, where are you going to install the system?
The final operation is even hilarious, and Lisa becomes an upgraded version of Macintosh.
Well, the Lisa computer with a graphical interface installed is really good, but big brother, Macintosh is in the range of 3,000 US dollars, and you will lose at least 1,000 yuan when you sell one, so you can't play it.
The ancestors of the Celestial Empire have long said that any business can be done, but a loss-making business cannot be done.
This sentence is very reasonable, for example, Apple, you can clean up the inventory, what to do after the cleanup, your product line will collapse, and you will use your Lisa computer to measure the price, and you really can't sell anything.
William White originally wanted to avoid this from happening, but now it seems impossible, the inertia of history is so strong, and the role of the individual is really limited.
It's not that William White has any good intentions, he is just for his own interests, since this road is not good, then he can't abandon the thigh of the blue giant.
Anyway, this pirated IB is still very interesting, otherwise it's disgusting to the blue giant, those old guys are really hateful.
Someone planned to embarrass the blue giant, and the tiny machine company naturally became famous, and a few college students who were just funny and playing treasures suddenly became the darlings of the media.
What is the attitude of these counterculture guys towards the blue giant, it is simply self-evident, and in order to attract attention, of course, the blue giant has been repeatedly mentioned.
The undisciplined media even claimed that there may be two IBs in the United States in the future, and the small machine company has great potential.
Although the IT industry knows that this is nonsense, this does not prevent this group of guys from joining in the fun, as an industry giant, the blue giant will certainly not be a few people who envy and hate, since someone provokes an incident, everyone will follow suit.
The Blue Giants are in a state of flux right now, they are very powerful, but they don't spend much energy on their personal PCs.
If you don't invest resources, big companies are actually not as good as small companies, and if you don't say anything else, it's enough to give a name to the computer, it's almost a fruit war.
Well, neither bananas nor mangoes seem to be as catchy as apples, and after hearing the joke, William White felt five thunderbolts.
Nima, if the compatible machine is called a banana in the future, this is really, why don't you call it a divine beast?
This is actually someone's unintentional mistake.,PC has been called open.,This is the first thing people IB used.,The original computer of this era.,Everyone is called a fruit machine.。
White Software directly occupied the title PC, and now everyone is used to it, and the blue giant can only continue to struggle with various names.
SDOS is as unreliable as it is, Intel's CPU is not very stable, and as for other supporting software, there is no trace of it.
Wright Software?
Don't joke, how can people take it out now and let you plagiarize?
This is the original words of the White Software, so there is nothing to choke the IB people to death.
To say that this is nothing to do, William White is not so empty, and it is no secret in the industry that the Lotus software, which got the blood tonic medicine, cooperated with the blue giant.
