HP’s decade-long departure: I love this quote from Horace Dediu:
"Consider how HP and Apple faced the changes in the PC market almost exactly a decade ago.
- On September 3, 2001, HP announced that they would acquire Compaq.
- On October 23, 2001, Apple announced the iPod.
The rest, as they say, is history."
That is disruptive innovation, in a nutshell.
