The personal computer was a revolution in information technology that spawned a $50 billion hardware business with another $30 billion in software and peripherals (e.g. mouse keyboard printer etc. ) by 199. During its short 15 years the industry evolved through three successive periods. During its first 5 to 6 years it was characterized by explosive growth and multiple small competitors vying for a piece of the market. From 1981 to 1985 the industry became a battle for standards and retail shelf space. The third eras was one of increasing fragmentation.
