IBM wanted to keep computers away from the masses, to
keep them in the
hands of the "priveleged", and their reward was to be able to continue to
dominate the market to this day. DEC wanted computers to be free and for
people to use them. Their reward was to be sucked up, torn apart and
destroyed by a lesser company whose origins was in making clones of IBM's
computers.
