REBIRTH OF THE HOME COMPUTER
After disasters like IBM's PC Jr. and the failure of PC companies
like Texas Instruments
and Atari, the future of home personal computers didn't look so
good. But in 1990 a new
generation of home PCs brought the business back. This program looks
at the products
that led to this rebirth, including the IBM PS/1, the
Tandy 1000,
the Magnavox Headstart,
the Macintosh LC and the Mac Classic. Also includes coverage of the
Commodore 64
and analysis from Dataquest.
This video is part of the program series: The
Computer Chronicles
Hosted by Stewart Cheifet, Computer Chronicles was the world's most
popular
television program on personal technology during the height of the
personal
computer revolution.
