A Question for Everybody
Have you ever heard the brand
war between Mac and PC?
Introduction
Everything started with the idea of Douglas Engelbart, an American engineer working at the Stanford Research Institute. The idea of a mouse driven graphical user
interface back in the 1960s. Researchers at Xerox Corporation were
inspired by the idea and made 'Xerox Star 8010 Document Processor in 1981 for $17,000. It did not become commercial successful.
First GUI Computer (Xerox Star)
Introduction
In 1981, IBM computers was also released but it is just a huge hit on business industries and not on home markets. As a result, IBM bought the Operating
System from Microsoft which is “MSDOS” and installed it in all of their hardwares.
Other manufacturers were then able to copy the IBM hardware design and ship their 'Clones' with copies of MSDOS purchased directly from Microsoft.
Introduction
As a result, even without IBM's approval or participation, their PC became an open standard with virtually unstoppable economies of scale. By 1990 IBM Compatible PCs captured an 80% market share, by 2000 97%. This has then led Microsoft stay ahead of
the competition against Mac.
Introduction
BUT!!
Introduction
Although IBM PCs running MSDOS dominated the market, Apple will be forever remembered as the innovative company behind the first mass market GUI based computer. Steve Jobs actually visited Xerox in 1971 and saw
the demonstration of Xerox Star in its development stage.
He then saw a potential and work on it. By the time Xerox released the Xerox Star 8010
in 1981, Apple were already hard at work on their own GUI based computer.
Introduction
In 1983 Apple finally released their first GUI based computer. Unfortunately the "Lisa" computer was an
expensive machine targeted at business and academia which proved to be a commercial failure.
A year later (1984) Apple launched their successful "Macintosh" computer for consumers. Till then, Macintosh battled out with Windows by
targeting a niche market that would patronize Mac.
