Chapter 1262 It Gets More and More Complicated

It was unbelievable. When the specious news reached Silicon Valley, a group of big guys expressed doubts while their eyes were dull.

First of all, the timing is wrong. When it comes to CPUs, X86 stands out. Intel or AMD are actually variants of X86. How powerful is this thing? Big Blue teamed up with Motorola and Apple, and they actually created a more powerful thing.

Power PC has lower energy consumption, higher frequency and better heat dissipation.

However, it was of no use. Except for Jobs, who was a treasure trove, other users didn't want to see it at all. Not to mention Big Blue itself, they didn't launch a few computers based on Power PC.

If the computing origin is concerned, the CPU packaging factory located in the Lion City should be closer to Power PC. Everyone knows that the girl from the Four Star family, without this scene, her father would be just about the same. In this case, it must be that bastard guy.

However, according to today's production technology, this factory is obviously not a Power PC. If this judgment is true, the power of the X86 platform will expand again.

Damn, what kind of hatred is this? Big Blue is messing with you.

Hey, that's not right, this guy is also the largest shareholder of outstanding shares of Big Blue.

After such a round of analysis, a group of big guys were shocked to find out. Today's personal PC platform is basically an endless loop, where a needle cannot be inserted and water cannot be poured in.

It’s funny to say that Big Blue, which sets the standards for the PC industry, is hampered by others. As long as Microsoft joins forces with Intel, it will basically be unfavorable.

The rule makers are in an extremely awkward position. Now we have finally escaped the bad luck of bankruptcy. If we still ruin ourselves like this, it will be a joke within the industry.

"Bill, have you heard anything? If a new architecture comes out, there is no way he won't get software support."

Bill Gates had a bitter look on his face. Compared to the guy opposite him, he naturally knew more. Your Dell is just assembling computers. As long as the price is right and the performance is reliable, it doesn't matter what CPU you use.

But what about me?

He doesn't believe that William White will completely switch to the window system. The most likely possibility is to develop a system close to iOS.

"Michael, it's not that simple. I just heard that they have demands to buy Power PC patents.

At the same time, negotiations to purchase Cyrix have also begun. Hell, no CPU manufacturer has ever run both architectures at the same time. "

"Well, that's right, but Cyrix should be very cheap now. Ahem, that's not the point. What about the software? He plans to make Power PC compatible with Windows systems? If that's the case, that's really crazy."

Bill Gates secretly complained that if it were that simple, he wouldn't have to worry about it. According to what this guy knew, William White was planning to start a new business. Otherwise, how could software engineers on the market suddenly become so nervous?

As a popular major, almost all colleges and universities in recent years have offered computer science majors. Although outstanding talents are still scarce, ordinary ones don't matter anymore.

Now that there is a sudden change in supply and demand, he will not think it is a coincidence.

After all, you know best what you have done. Once some tacit understandings are broken, you can't expect to maintain balance. Others may not know, and always think that it is William White's bad luck. There is something unclear about him. In fact, in terms of understanding of the PC industry, he only dares to admit that he is second to none.

You see, originally this game was good, you developed the operating system, and William White focused on the database and mobile terminal. It can be said that we cannot talk about mutual support, but we can also say that we are in peace with each other.

Ever since the advent of the Sega game console, the tacit understanding between the two parties has actually been broken.

Don't look at game consoles, that thing is a thing that William White started. After so many years of ups and downs, PS is still the leader in more than half of the world's gaming platforms.

"Michael, the specifics are unknown, but most likely, they will develop an operating system based on Linux.

Ahem, don't get too excited. In fact, he has already started to do this for game consoles and PDA platforms. You think, if a PC port is added at this time, it won't seem so abrupt. "

"Um, isn't that outrageous? Is this a completely open source system?"

"You have no doubt about this. Many years ago, he tried to persuade Steve Jobs to open source Apple's operating system.

Haha, I was rejected, so I started working closely with Microsoft. "

"Well, shit, hahaha, hahaha, Bill, you finally have a decent opponent. All this time, you have been like a cheat, completely invincible.

Hehe, I’m looking forward to your collision. The current market is very boring. "

Bill Gates shrugged and didn't pay much attention. If he was so far ahead, he was overtaken by William White at the corner. Then there is nothing to say, you deserve to be unlucky.

Okay, this guy obviously thinks too much. William White's focus has always been on mobile. The Linux systems created now are nothing more than a distraction.

If you attack the enemy, you must save him, that's all.

For Microsoft, you can't necessarily call it a bad thing. An exclusive monopoly business is bound to be coveted by others. William White is still trembling with fear, but what can you do with Bill Gates?

Let William White say that Big Blue is scared. Otherwise, it would be impossible to make repeated mistakes no matter what.

The things that William White is worried about have already been taken care of by Big Blue. Anyway, Linux is a basket, and everything can be put into it.

However, they seem to have overlooked an obvious fact. Big Blue's brand premium is at least over 15%.

Ahem, since they are all purchased by rich people, who cares about spending more money to buy software? After all, those who specialize in running scores rarely use IBM.

Ironically, it is precisely because they set the standards that the compatibility is so-so. Other PCs are called IBM compatible machines, so everything is compatible with them.

You make the hardware high-end and high-end, but the software allows users to DIY it. Ahem, what on earth are you thinking about? There is no official software mall now. To be honest, the software on your BBS is of mixed quality, and it is very easy to get caught.

I grabbed a handful of bombs and didn't know how to shoot them, but I just wanted to take myself into the ditch. I don’t know what these two weirdos, Big Blue and Motorola, think.

Throw away this unreliable project?

Others or not sure, Motorola and Apple will definitely not be too exclusive. It’s just a change of boss, everyone can still be shareholders. Since you, the blue giant, can't bring benefits to everyone, you might as well abdicate and make way for others.

Ahem, so what, don’t buy any technology, just package it and sell it to you. If you invest a certain amount of money, our shares here will be reduced accordingly. You see, why not do something that makes everyone happy?

"Um, are they abandoned like worn out shoes?" When he learned the news, William White was even more surprised. Damn, you're not mistaken. It uses the so-called copper connection technology. In terms of specifications, Power PC is ahead. A big chunk.

When it comes to scalability, there is no comparison between the two. You know, it was this Power PC that was the first to break through 4G Hertz. Dual-core and multi-threading technology also makes this product top the list.

Well, actually...

“Ahem, boss, more than 90% of personal PCs use the , of course they chose to give up.

However, the current valuation is a bit exaggerated. "
