IBM releases the first personal computer, the IBM PC. It used
the 8088 Intel microprocessor. The original 1981 IBM PC base
model offered a monochrome monitor and no hard drive. It sported
a 4.77MHz Intel 8088 CPU, a single 5.25-inch floppy drive with
160K of capacity, and 64K of RAM (expandable to 256K). It cost
approximately $3,000.
