As per the title. What changes would be necessary to make the Apple III reasonably successful financially for Apple, and what effects would that have on the future of Apple, IBM, and the world more generally?
Are we assuming that it was still designed by the marketing department and a success, or that it was designed by the engineers?
That's sort of a big turning point.
You basically butterflied away the iMac, and possibly even the iPod and the iPhone because this Apple might stay out of the phone market.
That's why it's an AHC/WI, not just a WI…which do you think would be more plausible for Apple to do at this time and which do you think would be more likely to achieve the title goal?
On that note...if the Apple III is successful, Sculley might not become CEO of Apple and Jobs might simply stay with the company rather than having his "years in the wilderness". This could mean no NeXTSTEP and no Pixar.
Which also means the Internet will be ludicrously different.
Yes, as I pointed out
What would it be like, I wonder… Probably created heavily by Microsoft…
Where's the "the horror" emoticon… ah, this emoji should do.
??? Apple being stronger should make Microsoft weaker. How do you think it would be stronger?
