How IBM's 5150 PC shaped the computer industry

8/11/2011 05:05:00 PM Jhonas Loss No comments

Most people in the Western world walk around with a powerful computer in their pocket or purse, otherwise known as a smartphone. It's not unusual to see someone clutching a legal pad-size gadget on airplane flights, such as an iPad, to read books. It's nearly impossible to walk into a coffee shop without finding someone pecking away at a trim notebook computer, checking e-mail and surfing the Web.

The lineage of all those devices, in one way or another, flows directly back to a press conference some 30 years ago tomorrow. On August 12, 1981, IBM rented out a ballroom at the elegant Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York and introduced its landmark 5150 personal computer.

Looking at the beige box today, nothing seems particularly remarkable. The rectangular CPU, with two black bays for floppy disks, isn't a marvel of design brilliance. There's nothing striking about the lines, the graphics, the color palette. The 5150 wasn't even the first PC. Apple, Atari, and Commodore produced so-called microcomputers that preceded it. And IBM's creation was inferior in some ways to those rivals.

But the 5150, more than any other computer before it, launched the PC revolution. It changed the way we work, the way we communicate, the way we entertain ourselves. That nondescript hunk of metal led to innovations that upended industries. More than any computing device before it, the 5150 changed our world.

The great revelation of the 5150, the reason it changed so much while earlier computers remained hobbyist gadgets, came in the way it was made. Nervous, particularly about the advance that the Apple II was making in computing, IBM raced to come up with an alternative. With time pressure, IBM chose to build its new machine from non-IBM components, a foreign concept for the insular company. That enabled the team to develop the product in 12 months, faster than any other product in IBM's history at that time.

Making a computer with off-the-shelf parts unleashed the industry. IBM used Intel's 8088 computer processor. For its operating system, IBM first turned to Digital Research Inc., hoping to license its CP/M. But, in a tale that has become legend in techdom, DRI hesitated and provided an opening for an upstart company, Microsoft, to offer an alternative operating system, PC-DOS, based in part on CP/M.

"You needed that spark of innovation that changed the paradigm," said Paul Bloom, chief technology officer of telecommunications research at IBM. "It really expanded the market."

IBM created the model that continues to pervade the PC industry. Relying on other companies to build parts for your technology was radical thinking at the time. Time pressure forced IBM into the strategy. But ultimately, it led to rapid innovation as niche component makers and software developers invested money and energy into improving their piece of the puzzle.

That turned IBM into a master assembler, a role that was easy for others to replicate. And that's exactly what rivals did. Within two years, Compaq Computer produced the first IBM PC clone, using the identical architecture, something IBM made publicly available so that other companies could easily make compatible software and peripherals. Within just a few more years, the market was flooded with clones, securing spots at the heart of the computing industry for Intel and Microsoft and, somewhat ironically, ensuring a diminished role and sliding market share for IBM.

That first 5150--made up of a system unit, a keyboard, and a color graphics capability--cost $1,565. Consumers needed to shell out more money for options such as a display, a printer, diskette drives, and extra memory. The 5150 originally weighed 21 pounds without the diskette drives, 28 pounds with two of them. It contained 40 kilobytes of read-only memory and 16 kilobytes of user memory, before adding the diskette drives. Compare that, for example, to the new, sleek Samsung Series 9 Notebook, which weighs 2.88 pounds and comes with a 128-gigabyte hard drive and 4 gigabytes of system memory.

The 5150 was a roaring success, helped in no small part by some of the most iconic advertising of the day. IBM wanted to convey the idea that anyone could use its new computer. So it settled on ads featuring Charlie Chaplin's tramp character, portrayed by mime Billy Scudder, as a lovable simpleton that could be coaxed into using the new machine.

It says much about how the computer industry has changed that IBM is no longer in the business of making PCs. The company sold its PC business to Chinese PC maker Lenovo for $1.75 billion in 2005. IBM recognized that the PC business was becoming increasingly commoditized, something it had started with the 5150. And it recognized that the once rapid growth of the market was a thing of the past.

"Just as we grow and mature, so does technology," IBM's Bloom said. "I don't know that the PC is dead. But it's certainly not growing the way other technology is growing."

These days, much of technology's growth comes from mobile devices. Smartphones and tablets, already far more powerful than the original 5150, are taking on functions that were once the domain of PCs, such tasks as e-mail, Web browsing, and even document creation and editing.

IBM is focused on even smaller computing devices, sensors, as the one of the next great paradigm shifters. Sensors are popping up everywhere, in appliances in people's homes to devices they wear on their bodies to traffic signals in major cities. And they're all collecting data and feeding that information to computer systems to analyze and act upon. IBM, whose great strength is collecting and analyzing data, is working to standardize the technology to make it more ubiquitous and more useful.

And yet, as all these other forms of computing emerge, the personal computer industry sparked by the 5150 rolls on, even if it won't return to the growth rates of its early days. Ever-thinning notebooks, such as Sony's new two-thirds-of-an-inch-wide Z series laptop, keep hitting the market.Google's Chromebook, which automatically connects to the Internet and doesn't require local storage, changes the notion of personal computing.

It all started at the Waldorf Astoria 30 years ago tomorrow.

Report: Fake Apple stores being forced to cover up

8/09/2011 01:11:00 AM Jhonas Loss No comments

With a U.S. lawsuit over fake Apple retail stores in its infancy, officials in Beijing have taken steps to keep lookalike Apple retail stores in the region from fooling passers by.

China Daily reports that the city is making a concerted effort to keep unauthorized retailers from using Apple's iconic logo, as well as its related brand names from the exterior of stores. The crackdown will last a month, but as the outlet notes, it's not keeping the look-alike stores from doing business as usual on the inside.

"As of Sunday, the response to the ban from unauthorized Apple sellers had been sluggish, with some owners merely covering their Apple logos with blank sheets of paper, or just covering part of the Apple logo, and employees at unauthorized retailers could still be seen dressed in T-shirts bearing the Apple logo," China Daily said.

Following last month's buzz about the fake shops--which was spurred by photos and details of a look-alike shop in Kunming--a city in southwest China--local officials ended up closing down two stores. A Reuters report noted that that same investigation, which had led to the closures, found that all five stores in the area were selling Apple-made hardware that had been purchased from third-party authorized resellers. A follow-up by American blogger BirdAbroad (who posted information about the Kunming shop), highlighted several more such stores, including ones in the U.S.

While Apple so far has refrained from commenting on the grouping of shops, a trademark infringement lawsuit it filed in the U.S. two weeks ago would suggest the company's been busy behind the scenes. That suit, filed in New York, takes aim at three companies and some 52 other individuals. One of those is Apple Story Inc., believed to be the match of a similarly named Apple retail look-alike in Flushing, N.Y.

As mentioned in previous coverage, Apple's retail business makes for a tantalizing target for parties looking to cash in on the company's growing brand. Apple's stores generated $3.5 billion in revenue during the most recent fiscal quarter, up 36 percent from the $2.57 billion during the same quarter the year before. During its fiscal third-quarter earnings call, the company noted that of the 325 stores that were open, the average revenue per store was $10.8 million, with 73.7 million visitors walking through the doors.

Apple is quickly approaching 330 stores worldwide, four of which are currently in China, including its flagship store in Beijing, the same city this crackdown is now taking place.

Analyst: Apple MacBook to make gains on PC

8/09/2011 01:09:00 AM Jhonas Loss No comments

Apple's MacBook is set to make market share gains on PCs in the second half, according to a research note from a Deutsche Bank analyst.

As demand for consumer Windows PCs softens a bit, Apple will be in a position to a grab market share, according to a research note released today from Deutsche Bank analyst Chris Whitmore.

"Our recent checks with the PC supply chain suggest overall orders have softened modestly in the past several weeks due to weaker European and U.S. Consumer NB (notebook) demand and more conservative back-to-school expectations from OEMs," he wrote.

This may set up an opportunity for Apple. "Within the computing market, we see significant opportunity for Apple to take meaningful share in the second half as the Microsoft/PC ecosystem is relatively stagnant, lacking meaningful new offerings," he said.

The 2011 MacBook Air lineup will give Apple a leg up in the PC market, according to an analyst.

Whitmore continued. "Apple will be competing with an upgraded Mac OS, new MacBook Airs...and a new iPad iOS."

PC makers won't have a strong response until 2012 because Ultrabooks--essentially the PC equivalent of the MacBook Air--won't be shipping in large enough volumes to drive down costs below the Air until 2012, Whitmore wrote.

And Apple remains dominant in the tablet market, too. "Within the Tablet market, the iPad remains the gold standard as competitors struggle for mindshare and traction (note HP's price cuts on the TouchPad)," Whitmore wrote.

Overall, Deutsche Bank's PC unit growth estimate this year is 4 percent.

Share Files Between A Mac and A PC

7/30/2011 12:26:00 AM Jhonas Loss 1 comment

Many homes and offices have a hybrid computer environment, meaning both Macs and PCs are being used. Setting up network shares between the two is not very difficult, but certain options must be turned on to allow a Mac computer and a PC to see file shares. The following tutorial will explain what to setting to enable. In Windows Vista and Windows 7 you will turn on File and Print Sharing and then choose which folders to share.

Configure Windows sharing options in Windows 7 to share files with a Mac

To do this in Windows 7, go to the Control Panel and Open the Network and Internet section. Next, click on the Network and Sharing Center. In the left column, select the Change Advanced Sharing Settings link.

This brings up the global settings for your current profile. Click the options to Turn on network discovery, Turn on file and printer sharing, and Turn on sharing so anyone with network access can read and write files in the Public folders.

This allows access for anyone who can see the Public folder on your Windows machine. You can add additional folders within that directory for organization.

On a Mac, you will setup sharing by clicking on Preferences (Apple logo > System Preferences) and then by clicking the Sharing icon.

Configure file sharing options on a Mac to shar files with a Windows PC

Check the services you want to share in the left column, and then select the Shared Folders and the Users you want to allow access to those shares. If you want to grant anyone on the network access to the shared folders, select Everyone in the Users section. You can then choose if you wan to grant Read Only privileges or Read & Write privileges to those users.

Next, click Options in the File Sharing section.

Share files and folders using SMB (Windows)

To share files with Windows users, check the Share files and folders using SMB (Windows) box.

In addition to using shared folders, you can set up a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device. A NAS will allow users to access files when other computers are not on. Mapping a network drive to a NAS and using that mapped drive is an efficient way to share between many different network devices.

How To Repair Computer Stop Errors

The majority of Windows users think that to troubleshoot blue screen errors and stop errors, such as the stop error 0×80070002, one needs the help of a computer technician. Well, there is no doubt that such errors are typically more difficult to resolve than common application errors, such as DLL and EXE errors, but before you seek out professional help, first try the simple troubleshooting steps listed in this tutorial.

The following PC maintenance steps not only help you fix many complicated errors, such as the stop 0x000000ed error, but when performed regularly also ensures that these errors do not occur in the future.

Perform a malware scan

Malicious programs, if present on a computer may cause all kinds of errors, such as the 0×80070052 stop error. In case your computer is throwing random errors or behaving erratically, immediately run a malware scan to restore your system’s integrity.

Before you run a malware scan, update your antimalware tool with the latest security updates and disconnect your PC from the Internet. Next, reboot Windows in Safe Mode. The following steps show you how to boot Windows in Safe Mode:

Terminate all running programs and restart your computer.
Press and hold the F8 key while Window reloads.
Select the Safe Mode option using your arrow keys in the Advanced Windows Boot Option Menu and then press Enter.

Once you have rebooted Windows in Safe Mode, open your antimalware tool and start complete system scan. Delete or quarantine the reported threats to sanitize your computer.

Further, it is essential that you practice safe computer usage habits to ensure your PC does not get re-infected. Some of the top safe computer habits that you must incorporate are:

Keep your antimalware tool updated and schedule regular antimalware scans.
Install a robust firewall.
Read the End User License Agreement (EULA) before you install any new software.
Scan any e-mail attachment before opening it.
Scan any external device upon attaching it to your computer.
Stay away from dubious websites.
Download new software, programs, and files from the Internet only if you trust the source.

Clean your registry

The registry is a critical component of any Windows operating system. It provides the operating system the necessary information that it requires to complete various tasks. If the information stored in the registry is incorrect or missing, all hell may break loose. To fix errors occurring due to registry related issues, clean your registry using an advanced registry maintenance software. Remember a clean registry not only improves your system’s performance, but also keeps errors to a minimum.

Update your files

The use of outdated files is another common cause of application and system errors.

Update Window and inbuilt driver files – Enable the built-in Automatic Update feature to have new Windows updates automatically installed as and when they are released by Microsoft.

Software files – Use the software update tool if available to update software files. Otherwise, manually update them by downloading the latest available updates from the software manufacturer’s website.

Third-party drivers – Use an advanced driver update software to keep your third-party drivers automatically up-to-date.
