RH-HMEA
Compaq's move into the home: a consumer brand with sound, a modem and software preloaded, sold through high-street retail rather than dealers. It worked, and Presario became one of the biggest-selling PC names of the nineties. The start of the era when a PC was bought in a shop like a television.
