IBM has a personal computer.
How compatible is an IBM PC clone with a real IBM PC? IBM PC compatible computers are similar to the original IBM PC and can run the same software and support expansion cards. The computers used to be labeled as PC clones.
There is a robotron. The first computer in the series to use the U880 was the Robotron Z9001. The computers used in schools and government institutions were mostly used for games.
It is compatible with the IBM PC. The computers were referred to as PC clones. They duplicate almost exactly all the significant features of the PC architecture, thanks to IBM’s choice of commodity hardware components, and various manufacturers’ ability to reverse engineer theBIOS.
Microsoft’s PC DOS was the most popular. IBM allowed Microsoft to sell its own version of the software for non-IBM computers. The original PC architecture was exclusive to IBM.
The majority of personal computers on the market are descendants of the IBM PC compatibles, with Microsoft Windows being the dominant operating system, although interoperability with the bus structure and peripherals of the original PC architecture may be limited.
The industry standard was “IBM compatible architecture”. A generic term was used for PC. The IBM PC changed how we live. The PC made it a standard to tear down the wall between professional and personal computing.
