  • What Silicon Valley Looked Like In 1991

    Last week we talked about how Facebook now has a higher market cap than IBM.

     

    Obviously, Silicon Valley has changed a lot over the past two and a half decades.

    Take a look at the poster, below.  It was a 1991 calender put out by the storage company, Seagate.

    The poster illustrates the biggest companies in the area at that time. A few, like IBM, HP, and Apple,  are iconic … Many others no longer exist.

    It is kind of cool to see what that area looked like before the dot.com era.

    Imagine what happens in the next several decades!
