Like IBM circa 1968?
- cromulent 5y agoWell, the world was changing and new opportunities arose. I think it's different now compared to then. In 1968 there weren't that many computing devices around. When video games and home computing came around, there were massive opportunities and the entrenched players missed some of them. Same with mobile phones, same with the internet, same with smartphones.
- ngcc_hk 5y agoVertical integration for our Mgt guru generation could not last. In fact the problem of intel not farming out its fab business (and recognise its asset is x86 etc) is the problem. What apple smart at is cut the line to fab. Still ibm then have no consumer whilst apple now has no business and cloud business domination ... still lots of space to play. But if windows moved to arm with the same result I cannot say intel can survive though.
