Silicon Valley

Chapter 312 New products of the mac series

As soon as wifi comes out, who will compete!

Williams lab, it should be said is WilliamsX lab, the lab has been developing wifi before. Now, wifi technology has finally been successfully developed! Cisco is in the process of designing and manufacturing wireless routers. In order to promote wireless routers, Cisco also designed an external wireless network card with usb interface. As long as a wireless network card is plugged into the computer, wireless Internet access can also be performed!

As long as there are more users of wireless routers, Apple will quickly launch the world's first wifi wireless laptop, which will surely shock the world! Then, coupled with Apple's excellent craftsmanship, it is sure to bring Apple back to life!

In the conference room, Henry turned on the computer, and then opened a wifi-related information document. Then, Henry turned around, pointed his right hand at the projection, and said, Now, what I'm showing you is a technology that allows electronic devices to connect to a wireless local area network, called wifi. Through wifi, users can surf the Internet wirelessly. Function. The wifi technology is developed by WilliamsX laboratory, the transmission rate is as high as 2M, and the coverage is within a radius of 20 meters, which can basically meet the needs of ordinary netizens. At present, the technology is mature and can be commercialized. And Cisco We are already developing wifi wireless routers, and if we are the first to launch wifi wireless laptops, I think the gimmick of wireless Internet access alone is enough to attract users!

After Henry finished speaking, Apple's employees couldn't help showing excitement, and nodded in agreement.

The development of wireless laptops will definitely be liked by users! Compared with wired laptops, wireless laptops are really convenient to carry. Hehe, it seems that the tail of the laptop is finally going to be reduced!

Yes, the future development of notebook computers must be wireless Internet access!

...

Henry let them discuss for a while before he said, Yes, wireless laptops will definitely be the future of laptops. However, we also have to set aside a wired network card interface, which may be used by users. Besides. The current router They are all wired routers, and we must reserve wired network card interfaces for laptops to win more users!

Henry brought up a picture on the computer and said, This is the appearance of the laptop I designed. In addition to the wifi function, the laptop must be lighter and thinner!

At this moment, everyone looked at the picture and was full of surprise.

The laptop in the picture is so beautiful, with a minimalist, slim style that is stylish and tech-savvy. compared to today's laptops. It's as thin as a cicada's wings.

Oh, it's so beautiful, I can't help but want to own one when I see it!

However, to make such a thin notebook, with the current level of technology, it is very difficult to achieve!

Well, yes, it's really hard! Unless the hardware can be made smaller. Otherwise, it's simply not possible!

...

clap clap clap!

Henry clapped his palms, signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said, The notebook will be done according to this goal. We will do our best to design the notebook to be lighter and thinner. Whether Apple can rise depends on it!

When everyone heard this, they all looked serious and nodded seriously.

Henry clicked another picture on the computer at this time, and the picture above was a 20-inch LCD monitor.

Everyone looked at the picture, a little confused. What does Henry Williams mean by showing us a computer monitor?

Henry smiled and said to everyone, Do you think this is just a computer monitor?

The crowd nodded.

Henry smiled and shook his head, Actually, this is not a monitor, but a computer!!!

a computer? The jaws of everyone present almost dropped in surprise.

Henry smiled slightly and explained to them: This kind of computer is called an all-in-one computer, that is, a computer that combines a host computer and a display!

Upon hearing this explanation, everyone's eyes lit up. What a creative idea. This way, it is much more convenient, takes up less space, and is full of technology. It looks more high-end, atmospheric and high-end than ordinary desktop computers!

What do you think? Henry asked with a smile.

Oh, great, Mr. Williams! I dare say, this is a brilliant idea that will surprise the industry!

It's a genius idea. It's possible to implement this function, but it's not easy to make such a product well! After all, all the hardware must be put into the display, and there will definitely be many problems!

Henry smiled and said: Of course it's not easy, but it's not just that you need to overcome the difficulties! Now we have two products to develop, one is a wifi wireless notebook computer, and the other is an all-in-one computer. The former can be called the MacBook series, the latter can be called the iMac series, and both series of computers can use the same system, so we can also collectively call these two products the Mac series!

As for the operating system of the Mac series... Henry said this, and suddenly stopped. Apple's current operating system is Mac-OS, and while it's not bad, it's still a long way from being a good system. 1995 is coming, the windows95 operating system is coming, and Apple must develop a better system!

In Henry's memory, in order to fight against the Microsoft system, Apple later fell in love with the operating system nextstep developed by the next company established by Jobs. Subsequently, Apple integrated the Mac-OS system into the Openstep system and developed the Mac-OS-X operating system, which will become the exclusive desktop operating system for Apple's Mac series products!

Therefore, Henry had to consider the acquisition of Jobs' next company.

Henry said, In order to optimize our operating system, what do you think of the nextstep system developed by next company?

After Henry finished speaking, everyone immediately fell into deep thought.

In fact, most of the developers of next company are former Apple employees, but they were later poached by Steve Jobs, and even Steve Jobs poached people so badly that Apple finally reached the point where Apple wanted to sue Steve Jobs. Therefore, the technical development strength of next company can be said to be very strong, and the products developed by them are also very good, but Jobs pursues perfection, and the more perfect it is, the more expensive the product is. The workstations of next company cannot be sold because the products are too expensive!

And Apple can develop in the future, the nextstep system contributed!

In addition, the development of the ios system also draws on the nextstep system, and many engineers who develop the system also come from the next company!

Apple's acquisition of next company is equivalent to just bringing back a part of the split.

A whole apple is a mighty apple!

After a few minutes, everyone expressed their opinions.

The nextstep operating system is based on the Mach and BSD operating system kernels, uses Objective-C as the native language, and has a very advanced GUI interface!

Yes, if we can develop based on Jobs' nextstep operating system, the new system will have the same stability, reliability and security as the uinx operating system, and at the same time, it will have the ease of use of the Macintosh interface. , this will be a very good operating system that not only professionals will like, but ordinary consumers will like our products!!!

Yes, the nextstep operating system is really good! If we want to develop a new operating system, then the nextstep system will be our best choice!

...

Henry nodded and said lightly: Very good, then let's launch an acquisition from Jobs' next company!

After Henry finished speaking, he couldn't help but think about a question, what should Jobs do after acquiring the next company?
