This is the computer that as manufactured by IBM and in clone form became the defacto standard for business use for the remainder of the decade and beyond. The base model retailed for $2880 and included 64 kilobytes of RAM and a single-sided 160K 5.25" floppy drive. Adding a hard drive or increasing the memory could drive the price up considerably. The IBM PC was powered by a 4.77 MHz Intel 8088 processor." Game Pictures
