亚当·奥斯本(Adam Osborne)想制造一种小而坚固的计算机,其形体之小可以放在飞机座位的下面,其坚固程度即使掉在地上仍能继续工作,而且还要在上面预装大量软件。再有,容易制造也是这种计算机的必备条件之一。1981年4月,以奥斯本命名的Osborne Ⅰ型机问世,它就是世界上第一台便携式计算机,在商业上一举成功。奥斯本敢为天下先,他说,“我看到并抓住了机会。显而易见,应该制造人们真正喜欢的东西,并且价格要低。这就是一切。” 为此,奥斯本声名大震,他的计算机成为计算机工业的流行品牌,人们纷纷请他签名留念。那时,他如同坐在一座金矿上,1982年6月至1983年5月是他盈利最多的一年,纯收入高达10亿美元。在硅谷短暂的发展史上,奥斯本计算机公司(Osborne Computer Corporation)是发展最快的公司之一。曾 Adam Osborne wants to make a small, sturdy computer that is small enough to sit under the seat of an airplane and still be solid enough to fall on the ground and still be pre-installed A lot of software.
