Introduction Compact
This is a forum to discuss Clayton Christensen's book, theory, and examples.

The title of his book is: "The Innovator's Dilemma: When New Technologies Cause Great Firms to Fail".

He pointed to two recent examples:

HP's inkjet vs laserjet; how HP set up a separate business units to deal with the problem; and ...

Intel's Celeron vs Cyrix (& AMD); how Intel created the Celeron to deal with low-cost microprocessors.... (and National just gave up on Cyrix).

If you know of other examples, especially those that are *currently in progress*, please talk about them here.
