Pfeiffer, president of Compaq, believes that the computer industry with vertical structure, which was once very popular in the past, can no longer adapt to the new situation, and a new industrial structure with horizontal specialization has come to the fore

The business model that emphasizes purebred to gain advantage is becoming more and more difficult to adapt to the increasingly fierce market competition
