| | IBM PC compatible - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | IBM PC compatible refers to a class of computers which make up the vast majority of smaller computers (microcomputers) on the market today. | | | The origins of this platform came with the decision by IBM in 1980 to market a personal computer as quickly as possible in response to Apple Computer 's rapid success in the burgeoning market for low-cost single-user computers -- what later came to be known as the "personal computer market". | | | Later, in 1987, IBM itself would launch the PS/2 line of personal computers which was only software compatible with the PC architecture; this was also hugely unsuccessful. |

| | * Clone - (Computing): Definition |
| | Before that IBM computer s were only used in business. | | | clone, compatable a computer manufactured under a different label or by a diffirent company but to diffirent degrees can use the same replacement parts, software and hardware components as that designed by the original manufacturer... | | | A common problem is how to clone your install ed Windows XP and move it to a new hard drive on the same computer. |

| | Definition of Clone |
| | The machines were often referred to as "IBM clones," or "IBM compatible" computers. | | | "Clone" can also be used to refer to software that serves the same purpose as another more mainstream software program. | | | The term "clone" arose in the mid-1980s to describe DOS or Windows-based computers made by companies other than IBM. |

| | PC History |
| | The first product to bear the designation IBM Personal Computer or IBM Clone was the IBM Personal Computer, introduced in August, 1981. | | | In fact, the term "personal computer" was in general use before IBM slapped it on its early desktop iron. | | | When you refer to his hardware as a "PC" the polite part of the conversation is likely to quickly disappear as they disparage the PC and rue for the days that their favorites—be they Amiga or Macintosh—once parried for marketshare. |

| | Should Intel and IBM end up in court one day over this scenario based on 'ifs', the court would be asked to look at the two products and compare them. | | | There has also been speculation IBM wants to get into the clone chip market to steal business from Intel because while Intel has soared to all-time highs, IBM is forever sinking into crisis. | | | What is known however, is that IBM can use Intel's designs to make microprocessors. |

| | IBM listened well: IBM put into the IBM PC all the inexpensive features that business users were begging computer companies to provide. | | | IBM never creates a new kind of computer; instead, IBM watches its competitors' products, notices which ones sell well, and then designs a product that meets the same needs better. | | | IBM PC When lots of IBM's customers began buying Apple 2 microcomputers to do Visicalc spreadsheets, IBM reacted by developing an improved microcomputer, called the IBM Personal Computer (IBM PC), which did everything that Apple 2 computers could do, but better. |

| | The no-name clone makers still give you more bang for the buck, parts are easier to find, they have a more open architecture, and in general you can add any hardware or software you want to them. | | | Maybe it is time to revisit the days of the clone makers and examine what made them the choice of millions of computer buyers. | | | Generally speaking, the larger, better known makers are "proprietary", which means only certain hardware and software will work on their units. |

| | How to Buy a Computer |
| | In fact, the new models of this computer are so inexpensive that IBM doesn't build it any more. | | | Eventually one kind of computer becomes a standard, which means more programs are written at lower cost, and many companies compete to make the best, least expensive version of that computer. | | | In the real world this snowball effect was swift and powerful -- a computer model originally created by IBM has become the industry standard, many companies are making versions of it, most programs are written for it, and best of all, no one owns it. |
