No, I don't believe P&G by itself determined the fate of the personal computer. Also, the P&G decision was made while the Apple ][ plus was still for sale, before the days of the Macintosh, or even the Lisa. The IBM PC of those days wasn't much more than a TRS-80. If you read what I wrote I also said that purchasing departments were comfortable with IBM because they already had IBM equipment. This made IBM personal computers an easier sale in many companies.
There have been lots of Macintosh computers that I have never owned; when the original Mac-in-a-box came out it was not superior to my Apple II GS, so I never dealt with it. I can tell you that no Apple computer that I have had required more than basic electronic tools to open or work on them.
I'm sorry but when I see comments like "when they had stores" and I know their stores are very successful and in cities all over the world I feel a need to reply.
