Rod canion:

And he said, I want to retire.

And that was a shock.

Bill murto:

It's always been am I enjoying what I'm doing?

And the moment I'm not, change it.

Jim harris:

This is what happens to all big companies.

There are none, I don't believe, that Ever can keep what they had in the beginning Throughout their growth.

It's impossible.

Rod canion:

That happened during one of the toughest times-- Toughest periods of my leadership of the company.

While many of the ibm compatible companies Have already gone under, literally, compaq Has yet to really falter.

Compaq computer has tried to outsmart ibm.

Announcer:

First, compaq took on the big boys, Then became one of them, and now must fight to stay.

Bill fargo:

I knew what ibm was capable of, And I knew that they would come sooner or later.

I can't help but be reminded about that joke, How do you dance with an elephant?

Very carefully, right, exactly.

There was these industry rumors that ibm Was going to sue compaq.

Bob jackson:

Let me just say compaq Was practicing a large number of ibm's patents, large number.

Rod canion:

They were beginning to sense that they weren't Going to be able to control the pc industry And make the kind of profits they were used to, So they were looking to make money off of their patents.

Bob jackson showed up at our door And asked to see the ceo of the company.

Ibm is here.

Bill fargo:

When ibm came they brought an army of people.

I don't really know who they were.

Chris cantwell:

Ibm would do this thing called Filling the skies with lawyers.

Bill fargo:

I got very concerned, very concerned.

Holy sh*t.
