IBM PC Turns 30
IBM released the "Personal Computer Model 5150" in August 1981. Costing $1,265 in 1981, it didn't have a monitor, parallel ports or even a hard disk. The machine used a 4.77 MHz Intel 8088 processor and featured 256 Kbytes of random access memory. In today's terms, that set of hardware would represent an investment of $2995.
Gary Kim was cited as a global "Power Mobile Influencer" by Forbes, ranked second in the world for coverage of the mobile business, and as a "top 10" telecom analyst. He is a member of Mensa, the international organization for people with IQs in the top two percent.
