Greetings to all, I'm am preparing a research paper on the Marketing strategies of Apple Computer, Inc. in the 1990's. If any of you have any insights/opinions on the subject Apple's Strategy or what their strategy should be or the general trend of the industry as a whole, I invite you to share them. Fuel for Thought: Will the 90's bring more personal computers, or will there be an emphasis on the "mini-computer" market that Sun Microsystems has benefited from in the last few years. Where is the biggest market? Mainframes? Mini-computers? Micro-Computers? Or will the demand shift from the mini-computer to the networked micro computer. What will be the hottest operating system of the 90's, is MS-DOS dieing out? Should Apple continue to develop CD storage systems? What will be Apple's Major target markets in the future? What will happen (to) NeXT, here's your chance to predict the future. PLease Respond directly to me or the list. Thanks in Advance for your participation. ____________ Jon Meyers : Consulting Department | | Academic Computing Services |x / University of Vermont | / 113 Waterman Building / | Burlington, VT 05405-0160 | / | | BITNET: JMEYERS@UVMVAX | | -------
