"Misery, heartbreak, sorrow, and despair. No, I'm not talking about adolescence; I'm referring to what happens when you're stuck with a PC from Hell. Systems that were overpriced and underpowered, parts that failed two days after the warranty expired, marathon phone calls with brain-dead tech support staff - over the years we've suffered more than our share of ills, and so have millions of other innocent PC users. But picking these 10 Worst PCs of All Time wasn't as easy as it sounds."

Well, things have worked out pretty well for Apple. You don't have to be the most popular to make a ton of money.
But the battle for popularity was really lost when regular folks started going out and buying computers... and they didn't know anything about RAM or hard drives or resolution, or any of that technical stuff. But they did know one thing. And they new it because they had been told by one or more people... their spouse, a friend, a loved one, or perhaps that weird kid down the block that "knew about computers". They knew that they wanted a machine that was "IBM PC Compatible".
How do you compete with that?
