Rebirth capital madman

After confirming that Intel8080 is the architecture they want, the chunghru is looking for Intel's new CEO Gordon Moore, requiring the necessary support.

Although he listened to Arthur Lock, he heard the face, Gordon Moore did not dare.

What's more, how to use the semiconductor memory as a life root or not to completely ignore the company's new achievements in microprocessors --intel8080.

So, Gordon Moore called the relevant personnel of various departments in the production, market sales, called together, and discussed.

Arrangeing a decent product release to Intel8080, there is no question, disagreement appears on the sales strategy of Intel8080.

To put it bluntly, how should I sell intel8080?

This is a joke, but a joke, but an eight hundred questions.

Intel's semiconductor memory, although it is also an unprecedented new product, but its sales strategy can refer to the magnetic core memory of the intention, it can be done higher than the cost performance of the other party.

The previous Intel4004 actually belongs to the category of custom chips, and goes to the entrusted party.

Intel8080, which is a new appearance, where is the target group? Continue to calculators like Intel4004? But the current calculator market has been personally ended from the Texas Instruments, and it is difficult to see additional vendors with price war.

In short, from zero to one job, it is not a simple matter that is not impossible to cross this stage.

There is a high string in the heart, just a cold eye, he believes that in the face of Gordon Moore, Intel's department elite will definitely give a viable solution.

Sure enough, the final conclusion is that the reference data equipment is a low-end small machine selling price of eight thousand dollars. The Intel8080 is priced for each 360 US dollars.

When this is zero, there is a price, the British sales department is gradually formed, and the director of the Intel Market Sales Department, if the release is full of breath, it seems to think of IBM, the "360" in the SYSTEM360 in the day of the day. " , The meaning of a good color, can't help but praise, this pricing is perfect!

The chord snorted, you think Intel8080, is the CPU that is internally integrated in the internal integration of memory controllers, PCI channels, USB controllers, and even the display core of a graphics card, etc. It turned out to be a $ 36-1!

You must know that the first generation of the first generation of the powder will not be able to hide by the large machine and small might shame at all, it is absolutely impossible to have more than 800 US dollars, otherwise it will not attract people.

If the first generation PC is used as a CPU, Intel is also required for other peripheral chips configured by Intel8080.

These costs are added, but it is more than three hundred and sixty dollars that are high, and the personal computer manufacturer has space to operate.

See the high strings, do not have the color, Gordon Moore quickly asked: "High, what do you think?"

Senior strings have to be watted to give a spit point: "Intel8080 is unprecedented product, sales strategy is really happy."

"But one thing, everyone must understand that the microprocessor represented by the main machine and the small machine, Intel8080 is a kind of person's solution."

"So, I suggest that the price of 360 US dollars can be used as the retail price of Intel8080, and there is another wholesale price."

"For example, in the face of a thousand procurement of Intel8080, you can fully reside the needs of each other according to the preferential price of each 75 US dollars."

After Gordon Moore Since, he understood the mystery in this pricing mechanism, so I immediately took the board: "In accordance with high supplement, this will start the product release of Intel8080."

The chords are not followed by Intel next move because he is going to prepare the best hardships of assembly language compilers and BIOS function tables to Intel8080.

In fact, in the nearly 100 people employed in Los Angeles, there are about one-third of the technical engineer, the calculator, arcade, and computer, which is more than enough.

But to the Intel8080, the assembly language compiler and the BIOS function table are created from zero to one. In addition to the professional skills, it is still insecting keen sky and doing things.

Thanks to the top of the Strine, I have a goal, and his assistant Zhou Wen Yao is getting more powerful. The chord has not left Northern California, the best hardship - Gary Kildale is brought to the front.

In fact, a large extent, Gary Kildale is sent to the door.

At this stage, Gary Kildale served as teaching work in Naval Graduate School in Monterey, California.

This era, don't look at the rice crisis of the rice, but the funds of the rice research institutions are very sufficient. They have to live some researchers who are "ignore", and they will "waste" the resources caused by the freedom. Basic technology required for personal computers, Internet, etc.

Gary Kildale is very relaxed in the teaching of Naval Graduate School, and even during this period, you have read a doctor, then come back and continue to learn.

Therefore, Gary Kildale has a free to pay attention to the latest technological progress, for example, in the future, it will clarify the microprocessor with an epoch-making microprocessor.

From Monterey to Silicon Valley, it is more than an hour's drive, so Gary Kildale has learned to understand Intel4004 first, and has a strong research interest, which is actively participated in the Supreme Strove. Series Salon.

Zhou Wen Yao took Gani Kildale, the tall strings were determined, and this person was the technical genius of the Early Master's Early Master's Operating System CPM in the "Old Script".

Senior Strong Open Walks: "I have a set of assembly language design with Intel8080 architecture as a target platform. It is looking for an implementation of a compiler; in addition, after this compiler successfully came out, I still need to be on this basis. Abstract, an advanced function table that is easier to call Intel8080 underlying function. "

Gary Kildalot: "I have purchased an Intel4004 I have conducted a variety of experiments, and I feel that the microprocessor will become the core components of the computer in the future; now has the opportunity to contact Intel8080, Of course, you can't ask. "

Senior Senior: "Well, I will give you three months and 30,000 dollars, to complete these two tasks."

Seeing such a good remuneration, Gary Kildale is looking forward to the noddion of each other.

The chord gives Zhou Wen Yao a gesture, Gary Kildale is collected in the contract; then cooperates with Intel.

For Intel8080 development a assembly language compiler, Intel is not available; but there is no interest in the BIOS function table.

Ok, only the condition of the language compiler is sufficient, as a exchange, the chord got the patent authorization of Intel8080 architecture, and the second supply source qualification.

The current era, but anything involves Founding procurement, it is inseparable from the mechanism of the second supply.

For example, the Intel8080 is only produced in the Intel factory, and it will not pick up the Founder's large order. Intel must authorize the Intel8080 to other manufacturers. It is better to give the same product to the same product. Selection.

Therefore, it is not realized that the X86 architecture may be very kind of Intel in the future, the operation of Intel8080, and more open attitude, not to mention the chords.

Even, Intel felt that white has a compiler of Intel8080, which is inexpensive.
