Packard Bell

Very few brands can claim to have witnessed, let alone contributed, to the three major revolutions radio, TV and PC in home entertainment of the past 80 years. Packard Bell is one of the rare ones. The brand was born in 1926. In the 1920s and 1930s when radio was all the rage, Packard Bell emerged as a popular brand of console radios with a reputation for elegant design. The first Packard Bell television sets were launched in 1948, just as the TV revolution was sweeping the world.

In 1986, Packard Bell began designing and marketing personal computers to a previously untapped market segment: home users. Our goal was to design affordable, high-quality, easy-to-use computers, and market them through traditional retail channels. As simple as this may seem today, the idea was revolutionary at the time. Packard Bell pioneered the use of the PC in the home, transforming an unfriendly but useful office tool into a friendly, indispensable feature of today's modern home. Packard Bell also made significant inroads into the Consumer Electronics markets with the successful introduction of DVD players, PVRs, MP3 players, GPS and Storage products.
