Launched in 1982 by three friends in a Houston diner, Compaq Computer set out to build a portable PC to take on IBM, the world's most powerful tech company. Many had tried cloning the industry leader's code, only to be trounced by IBM and its high-priced lawyers. Explore the remarkable David vs. Goliath story, and eventual demise, of Compaq, an unlikely upstart who altered the future of computing and helped shape the world as we know it today.

1/19/17 Netflix DVD A fascinating look at the PC industry in general and Compaq in particular. It is absolutely amazing how much has happened in 35 years. From a 27 pound portable PC to 100 times the computing power in your hand held phone today. It is also eye opening how many companies were in the business in the early 800's who are no longer around in the business from giants like IBM and Compaq to Tandy, Radio Shack, Commodore and others. Lastly, is was really interesting to watch the life and death of a major company that started with 3 guys and an idea to 1000's of employees and billions of dollar and the issues that creates. Very well done.

Silicon Cowboys prizes the human drama behind business events, much as in “The Social Network” or “Steve Jobs.” Those films, too, pretended that technology was the star. But they knew that people were the real story.

Well made. I am not particularly interested in the subject matter but people who have are keen on it will get a lot out of this film.

Jason Cohen’s slick aesthetics manage to elevate Silicon Cowboys beyond fellow “info dumps” of this caliber.

A fast-paced and lucid time capsule, thanks to the kitschy vintage ads, archival footage, and news clips.
