Rebirth capital madman
Chapter 952 leads to the new forces in the development direction of personal computers
Improve Intel80386's mass production capacity and product yield, just resolve Intel from semiconductor memory suppliers, transformation into microprocessor suppliers, are part of tricky problems.
For example, Intel80386 has no shortcomings and bugs caused by technical mistakes, like supporting floating-point calculation functions Intel80387, there is no contact with Intel80386, can only use Intel80286 floating point calculation processor intel80287 write.
In this regard, Gordon Moore gives the explanation is that because the product introduces a major new technology, it is often easy to accompany defects. It has introduced a resource-forming mechanism for multi-tasking support, and intel80386. It is the first piece of X86 family microprocessor into the 32 era, naturally to learn lessons, focus on limited resources to ensure the improvement of design and manufacturing.
Senior strings are not entangled in the credibility of this answer, but it is clear that the microprocessor for personal computer CPU can handle floating point data, and process various multimedia data including images, sounds, and video, must be a general trend. If Intel misses this market opportunity, it is really not saved.
Therefore, Intel must be in the next generation, that is, in the fourth-generation microprocessor product, directly built-in floating point arithmetic unit, rather than placing the outside of the coordinator; to the fifth generation processor, on this basis, launch special Support for enhancement of multimedia data processing.
As for this product upgrade time interval for introducing major new technologies, it should be around three years.
Golden Lord Dad puts forward this expectation, what choice for Intel, Andi Moore, Andy Glov, can you choose? Can only be accepted.
More importantly, although the jazz is humble, you are a technical elite, but the rectification opinion is directly hit by Intel's soft ribs, let Gordon Moore, Andy Glov these professionals can not be confused, even Slightly a wolf.
It's hard, the jazz is turned, and he does not mention the technology that he is not good at, began to discuss the business.
After the Intel launched Intel80386, in addition to the lack of production, the sales of the goods were not good, it was facing the mainstream standard controller IBM coldness.
The IBM in this period is busy engaging a new set of patented new personal computer mainstream standards, preventing compatibility vendors from drinking soup, and in terms of specific implementation, platform CPU fixes to support multitasking, with The error interrupt function is also reduced on Intel80286 with new features such as cranes.
Due to the jurisdiction of the headquarters, there are many cured stiff places in the IBM individual computer sector. For example, the experience of the large computer age, the error assessment of the time interval of the personal computer product update replacement, and it is of course considered, using Intel80286 to do CPU IBM-PC, It can be eliminated in 1990. After all, the current IBM large computer main model is only 32.
On the other hand, the bug of Intel80286 is too much, and the IBM is developed together to support multi-task processing, etc., the new functional operating system OS2, which can contempt to contempt, so this understanding is brought to Intel80386.
The human condition of this person is not difficult to understand, IBM self-contague, it is called a small kingdom, the engineers inside thinking that their technology is the most cattle, using Intel's "small factory" products, it is enough to give face, Since the bug of Intel80286, so many repairs, no creativity, there is no more energy, and naturally do not want to add Intel80286's successor Intel80386, then waste brain cells.
How to effectively open the sales of Intel80386?
Gordon Moore, Andy Glov, these people really have no clear ideas, can only take a step, see one step, sit and wait for new variables.
But Gordon Moore can't just show that the answer is unable to match the Intel80387 of the Intel80386, and the resources are not enough, and there is insufficient resources.
After silence, Gordon Moore had to harden the scalp, once again, please ask, how is the Gao Jazz?
Senior strings, of course, have their own sets, in fact, this is also the power of this meeting, protecting the personal computer standard of "small installation".
"In the past years, the competition in the personal computer industry is reflected in the products and technologies including microprocessors, semiconductor memory, external memory, other chips, etc., etc., and combined with a reasonable cost. Mature-available products, pushing to the market, there have been dozens of personal computer hardware platforms, and with the operating system, programming tools, etc., and have to adopt a variety of color versions. "
"In now, the individual computer market in the rice country has excellent in the debut, IBM-PC and Apple Computers, the latter system is closed, the profit is considerable, IBM is also probilized, launching new personal computer standards, replacing the current Personal computer market accounts for the highest IBM-PC, accordingly, the core of competition has also changed. "
Speaking here, the Gazz's eyes have become sharp. "I think, in this jailed eye, Intel has a big chance, through absolute control of Intel80386 and its post microprocessor, replacing IBM, leading the development of IBM-PC."
Gordon Moore, Andy Gouft heard the tide, even the voice, how do you do what is the idea?
The chunghru has moved out of the founder of Intel Robert Neuss. Focus on it. "
Gordon Moore Head, Gao Jazz means, reaffirming and emphasizing this rule, so drawing IBM-PC compatible machine manufacturers using x86 family microprocessors as personal computer CPUs, and strive to condense these markets together, let The X86 family microprocessor market share cannot be replaced.
The Gao Jazz laughed, since you can associate this layer, it includes tips for the IBM-PC compatible machine manufacturers more competitive, microprocessor batch purchase price discounts, there is no need for me to waste the tongue Tauntable.
"However, Intel should expand the product line. In addition to the microprocessor, control bus, memory, IO, etc., the matching functional chip, must also be actively launched, so that it can significantly reduce the technical threshold for compatible machine manufacturers, Further seize the control of the IBM-PC standard, and it is also possible to significantly increase the difficulty of other semiconductor companies simulation X86 family's latest generation microprocessor products. "
Listening to Gao Jazz's advice on Intel's next transformation, Gordon Moore, Andy Glov suddenly opened up, the uncertainty of walking a step, no longer a high-priced executive The layer is consensus.
So, when the jazz finally proposed the personnel mobilization, Intel President Andy Glov took the CEO of the Intel Board and CEO, to lead Intel to implement these development plans, also Just the water to the stream.
In the hologracence, Intel in this period, you need a role to lead the back water battle, but Intel's veteran employees, but not Intel's founder's Andy Glov, Yuan Big Gordon Moore, more appropriate.
To put it bluntly, Andy Glov This Hungarian immigrants are more than the Gordon Moore, Robert Nuis's founders have a lot of roads, and he has no choice but to die with Intel.
In the Intel's development, Gordon Moore, Gao Jatrial, and Water, Dim Sose, Lisso, let Andy Glov comprehensively host Intel Operation, Andy Glov is full.
In fact, the new forces of personal computer development direction, in addition to providing CPU's microprocessor manufacturers Intel, software companies that offer new operating systems, such as positive and IBM, the Microsoft, R & D OS2 .
With the initial helping Gates successfully responded to the Basic Patent Rights, the Senus also had a 35% shares in Microsoft. In particular, Gates did not have the kind of enjoys, and Andy Glov. Fortunately, so Microsoft complies with the concept, that is, the native role of the rice market has become a new force in the development direction of personal computers.
However, it is necessary to roll back in the mud for a while, at least IBM, to eliminate the uncontrollable factors.
In addition, after the Sale Semiconductor Trade Agreement signed, a semiconductor industry did not dare to engage in price in the rice country market, coupled with some rice semiconductor memory companies, and the price of semiconductor memory on the rice country market is obvious, directly leading to personal computers because of memory The cost is rising and the price is improved.
Obviously, new operating systems that support multi-tasking processes, more memory, like OS2, can not be less than 2MB, and the compatibility of the current number of old software is not necessarily satisfactory.
Meet the personal computer host price, far more than $ 3,000, plus the display, printer, etc. External equipment, the cost is higher, and the current IBM-PC compatible machine generally price two thousand US dollars Get up, lack market attraction.
Therefore, this piece of the operating system can be unhappy first, during this period, or hardware is preferred.
After the Intel comb is clarified, the chords make the Gao Yijiao to help Intel issuance bonds, financing the $ 250,000 watt.
If the "Square Agreement" signed in 1986, it is the most profitable year in Wall Street. The capital market is unprecedented, the market is hot, as long as it will be packaged, garbage bonds walk, Intel this financing Even the water can't be caught in a few.
What's more, the chunghism is helping Intel financing, and there is no really expect to strive for external funds, but for the "precipitation" of the wealth of the Gaowa.
