 Clone (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A clone is a computer system (both hardware and software) based on another company's system and designed to be compatible with it.
The term "PC clone" fell out of use in the 1990s; the class of machines it now describes are simply called PCs or Intel machines (or even Wintel machines).

 IBM PC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
IBM PC™ (Personal Computer), is a trademark of IBM.
However it was not the corporate "computer department" that was responsible for this, for the PC was not seen as a 'proper' computer.
The predecessor of the current personal computers and progenitor of the IBM PC compatible hardware platform, it was introduced in August 1981.

 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".
Despite advances in computer technology, all current IBM PC compatibles remain very much compatible with the original IBM PC computers, although most of the components implement the compatibility in special backward compatibility modes used only during a system boot.

 PC History
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.
Each of these characteristics helps make the PC into the invaluable tool it has become, distinguishing it from computers that came before and an array of other devices with computer-like pretensions.
Every computer has a central processing unit and memory, and the chips used by PCs are used by just about every size of machine.

The PC AT had a new version of the Microsoft OS: MS-DOS 3.0 which could manage the new 5.25" floppy disk format (1.2 MB), the new hard disk capacities (20 MB and more) and allowed file sharing.
This computer was revolutionary, but it was the last time IBM imposed a standard to the PC clone industry.
IBM added a lot of new features: they abandoned the old Intel 8086 to the Intel 80286, so the PC AT used new 16 bit expansion slots.

 Ennex.com > Birth of the PC Clone: Ennex Asks, “Why Pay Retail?”
The IBM PC combined the conservatism of its “Big Blue” heritage with the radical adventurism of the 1970s in which it was conceived.
It was fascinating to see Apple benefit equally from the PC’s launch because the IBM name drew people into the store who had never before thought of owning a computer.
Thus it was feasible to obtain some of the components directly from their manufacturers at wholesale and to assemble a computer that was identical in every way to a PC you would purchase from an IBM Product Center, Sears, or ComputerLand.

Computer hardware problems are less common than software problems (just think about all the malware and viri running about the Internet), and there are far fewer variables to consider when learning to troubleshoot PC hardware.
So, some new techs figure the way to learn computer repair and troubleshooting is to carry around a few spare parts and swap-til-you-drop.
Well, it doesn't really work that way for a number of reasons, including the fact that all the really tough problems are intermittent, so diagnosing the problem correctly is actually the main challenge.
