How to Build an IBM XT Lookalike

Dennis Longley, Michael Shain · Palgrave Macmillan UK eBooks · 1985

With the IBM PC expansion boards now available it is possible to configure a system that uses the minimum of IBM components. For example, if a PC, not the XT hard disk version, is obtained with only one floppy disk drive, 64 Kb of memory and the keyboard (even that does not have to be IBM) this configuration can be expanded to become a 64 Kb system with a hard disk, colour/graphics monitor, serial/parallel ports, clock/calendar and be fully compatible with the XT. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
