Boone Corporation was a computer software company started by Stanford University student Mike Boone in June 1982 and incorporated on September 17, 1982. [1] It was at one time appraised at more than $1 million. [2]
After a dramatic rise, the company struggled due to a number of market and internal problems. [3] Everyone was laid off in October 1983, and the company suspended operations. [4] A group of former Boone programmers led by Brian Fargo went on to start Interplay. [5]
Mike Boone began selling self-made dry erase boards in 1984. [6] In 1989, he formed Boone International to market them. [7] He sold the company in 1999 [8] and later co-founded Cremo Company, a maker of shave cream. [9]
