King's Ransom Awaits Winning Entrants in 1984 Computer Market Sweepstakes

Article Abstract:

1984 is the year the personal computer industry approaches, and possibly breaks, the ten billion dollar sales barrier. There are many unanswered questions, troubled companies, and unsettled technologies but these problems are overcome by pent up demand and the perception of the computer as a necessity. Home computer unit sales should be up thirty-seven per cent, to 5.9 million. Software for home computers is expected to reach $2.4 billion. Personal computers should see a seventy per cent increase in unit sales, up to 3.1 million.
