Chapter 186: The IBM PC Is Listed
"Tsk tsk, as expected, the old guy's gun doesn't work." Holding the beautiful woman in his arms, William White was still cursing.
Well, this is a typical example of taking advantage of yourself and being good-looking. As for the result you said, please, everyone is an adult, and then it depends on your own performance.
Of course, the girl is not stupid and sweet. Although the taste is good, the old lady's advantage is not so easy to take advantage of. This is miserable, and walking is a problem.
The heroine of the new movie has been decided. When people see the list of actors, some are obscene, some are disdainful, and some are dissatisfied, but all of this is meaningless.
No one said anything strange, even those unscrupulous tabloids would not talk nonsense, because it was unnecessary. Isn't it normal for unmarried men and women to have something happen?
As for Roman Polanski who hid in Europe, you deserve your green hair, but you actually ran away, it's really hateful.
If one person escapes, if someone wants to be released on bail, the bail will be greatly increased. If people run away frequently, the judge will not be able to bear it.
On April 8th, IBM's PC finally stopped bouncing tickets, and the mystery was unveiled.
As for the market reaction, it is not very strong, and there are no bad reviews.
16 bit system?
Both Wang An and Apple have it, and your stuff doesn't seem to be too far ahead. As for the unified specifications, hehe, only the IT industry is interested for the time being.
This is not the author's nonsense. Now there are no compatible machines, and DIY has not appeared. The upgrade service for users is completed by the manufacturer. Except for some enthusiasts, you really don't know where to buy parts.
Most of the supporting boards on the market are for Apple users, and they bear the authorization logo of the White system. As for IBM's boards, they will not appear in the short term.
Both Apple and Wang An breathed a sigh of relief, and they basically agreed with William White’s judgment. In order to expand the product line, they will not produce 32-bit computers, and in order to suppress other manufacturers in terms of performance, it is impossible to engage in 8-bit processing. device.
As for the price, it is really within 5,000 US dollars, and the basic model is in the early 3,000 US dollars. This is also the price range that William White cares most about.
Master Qiao was a little resentful, but Markkula was sweating. If Lisa Computer's plan was followed, the computer worth more than $10,000 could only be sold to ghosts.
The blue giant jumped very hard, but they didn't expect that the market's reaction would be flat, and it would not sweep thousands of troops as imagined, and bowing their heads was a joke.
Naturally, the supporting software that has received the most criticism, the MSDOS system, can only be described as rubbish.
As for the largest professional software company, it chose to ignore it.
"We didn't get notified, we didn't have the operating system, we didn't know what they needed, so there was no way to provide software support."
White software, which is talking nonsense with its eyes open, really disgusts Big Blue. You can explain it, the software has not been handed over to them for a long time, although they know that they have already played through Microsoft's stuff.
"Tom, did you find any system loopholes?"
"There are many, boss, this set of things is in big trouble."
"Haha, hide the patch in the software and let them guess slowly."
"Okay, boss, are you okay doing this?"
"Don't worry, don't worry, Bill Gates will definitely find out, and then he will be furious, and then he will continue to be furious. He still dare not speak out, it is too embarrassing."
"Okay, boss, as you wish."
William White is too much. You will be fine if you install his software, otherwise you will make frequent mistakes. This is the humiliation of Hongguoguo. The most hateful thing is that Big Blue and Microsoft can only shut up. As for Lotus, ha! Die again!
For today's world, Big Blue is at a loss. My buddy just took a nap, how did it become like this.
Don't talk about dealing with Apple, you can't win against Wang An Computer. Once Big Blue's PC came out, all kinds of computers appeared. Anyway, Motorola's 6700 is cheap, isn't it just a price war, who is afraid of whom!
It's nonsense to say that Big Blue has no advantages. Many of their architectures are transplanted from minicomputers. It's not that the architecture is not advanced, but that they deliberately castrated it.
This so-called PC department is also in an embarrassing position in Big Blue, not to mention that it doesn't have many resources, and it is often called around by people.
"William, you really don't provide their software?"
"Old Joe, are you crazy? I'm a public company now, not a private company. How can I do whatever I want? I have to take care of the shareholders' interests. By the way, aren't you a shareholder too? What are you thinking?"
"Hmph, I knew that you took all the benefits."
"You can't say that. The benefits have already been given to you. What else do you want? If I play too much, someone will definitely trouble me."
William White is really not talking nonsense. There is also a Fair Trade Commission here in Laomei. Although you do not constitute a monopoly, you have shares in upstream and downstream companies.
It is not a big problem to have shares. If you join the board of directors, the nature is completely different.
Take a look at how wide the old American management is, and it is basically the same as Maozi's enterprises.
Another reason why there is no Fair Trade Commission to make trouble this time is that the other party is the blue giant. If you jump out now, you will definitely be slapped in the face.
William White is not easy to bully, if not too sure, it is best to choose to shut up.
"Brothers are busy raising money now, I don't have time to grind your teeth with you, so you can talk to my subordinates." William White complained, and he didn't care about the commotion here.
Isn't the principle of reciprocity popular now? Are you the richest man yet? Actually let the people below talk to me, it's not too bad to ask your boss to come forward, my buddies can definitely afford it.
This is really not someone's show off. Don't look at the market value of Big Blue as high as 60 billion, and William White's bunch of companies are barely 10 billion.
But remember, 10 billion is a very remarkable achievement, not to mention the richness of the country, the average country really can't afford this amount of money.
Another biggest problem is that these companies are all his own. You are not Big Blue. When it comes to personal assets, your CEO is more than eight blocks away from him. It’s fine if your board boss doesn’t show up. None of them showed up.
Haha, since that's the case, my buddy is also going to put on airs.
Who wouldn't be hypocritical?
Our chairman said he was very busy.
Well, there are also a bunch of jerks in the company. This is basically what I mean by saying that I am not at home. How to interpret it, you can think about it yourself. What happened to the industry leader, my buddy is still the king of crossovers.
To be honest, Big Blue has never dealt with gangsters. Well, there are not many people who have dealt with them. Who would have nothing to deal with this group of garbage.
It's really rare for people with status to play like this. After all, everyone doesn't look up and look down. If you do this, it will be embarrassing next time you meet.
It is said that respect is mutual, since you don't treat your buddies as human beings, I will let you die.
