 | | Image:IBM logo.svg The IBM 1401 was a variable wordlength decimal computer that was announced by IBM on October 5, 1959 and marketed as an inexpensive "Business Computer". |
| | The 1401 was available in five memory configurations: 1.4K, 2K, 4K, 8K, and the top of the line, 16K (a very small number of 1401s were expanded to 32K by special RPQ). |
| | An extant 1401 is being restored to operation at this writing at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California, complete with the old "false floor" of the mainframe era, used to hide cabling. |
