PC价降至低于1000美元后,高回报率的PC制造业已不复存在。Compaq,Dell,Packard Bell NEC,和IBM全都推出了低于1000美元的PC机,甚至低于600美元。美国本土的品牌机生产商也只能以降价的方法,响应兼容机的挑战。因为,某些兼容机已把价格定为每台400美元。 去年10月,Emachines公司加入进军美国的业洲廉价PC机生产商行列,以每台399美元和499美元敲开美国的大门。另一 After PC prices fell below $1,000, the high-yield PC manufacturing industry no longer existed.
