I A Rainbow At Its Peak

parislemon:

Horace Dediu presents yet another amazing way to look at the rapidly evolving computer industry (here are Dediu’s other fascinating looks of the past few days).

The PC looks like a rainbow at its peak.

The Macintosh looks like a roller coaster with a misleading small first hill that tricks riders.

Android, iPhone, and iPad look like fireworks just taking off…

I love how the immediate deflection in iPhone units marks the introduction of Android into this model. Just goes to show “You can fool some people some time. but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.”
