Not true. It had nothing to do with sucking less or being better (whatever that means). Sometimes success is about doing enough important things well enough while your competition does less or simply gets in their own way. That was the case for IBM back then. I remember buying my first original IBM PC. The experience was definitely what one expected from the International Businesses Machines corporation. Not what that market ultimately needed. They started it, failed to execute and lost prominence. Microsoft took advantage of that, and more.
