"None of our competitors have ever made two systems that run the same software"
- Trip Hawkins
About this Quote
This quote by Trip Hawkins recommends that the software application established by his business's competitors is not compatible with each other. This suggests that the software application developed by one company can not be utilized on the systems of another. This could be due to the reality that each company has its own distinct coding language and software application architecture, making it challenging for the software of one company to be utilized on the systems of another. This could be a major downside for the rivals of Hawkins' company, as it restricts the prospective consumer base for their software. It also suggests that Hawkins' company has an advantage over its rivals, as their software works with several systems. This might provide a bigger consumer base and more capacity for success.
This quote is written / told by Trip Hawkins somewhere between December 28, 1953 and today. He/she was a famous Businessman from USA.
