Of course, the computer industry has witnessed such revolutionary shifts in the past. Take the example of IBM publishing its PC specs in 1981. It wasn't because the IBM PC was a better mousetrap. They had an upper memory limit of 640 KB, since no one could imagine a single user would need more than 640 KB on an individual machine. A tape cassette recorder was available for data back up.
Consumers love choice.
They will put up with a huge amount of confusion and inconsistency in order to have access to choice. What drove the PC revolution was that it provided its users with control over their computing platform. They could buy memory or hard drives from one of a hundred suppliers, they could get an almost infinite range of peripheral equipment for almost any purpose or application. This new model introduced all kinds of inconsistencies, incompatibilities, and confusion between technologies, products, and suppliers. But, as the world now knows, consumers love choice.
