	IBM PC AT
		The IBM PC-AT was the first upgrade from the basic PC architecture introduced in 1981 (the XT expanded storage options, but not the processor, bus, chipset, etc.) The first ATs were released with a conservative 6 MHz processor which was quickly upgraded to 8 MHz.
		The IBM PC AT was IBM's second generation PC (if you consider the XT an extension of the original PC).
		Hi, I have an IBM 5170, and need a 5 1/4 BIOS setup floppy for it (the batteries died, and the original disk is no longer around).

		The IBM 5160 - The Second Generation PC The XT stands for EXtended Technology and was introduced in early 1983.
		It is basically an improvement over the original PC but not really that much different in that you could upgrade a PC to XT specifications with a few changes on the motherboard.
		Since the XT is in the middle of the original PC's, it is also in the middle of the pack as far as performance goes.

		The IBM Personal Computer XT (IBM 5160), often shortened to the PC XT or simply XT, was IBM's successor to the original IBM PC.
		The eight slots were an increase over the five in the IBM PC, although three were taken up by the floppy drive adapter, the hard drive adapter, and the serial card.
		PC and XT keyboards are not compatible with more modern PCs (IBM AT or newer), even with DIN to PS/2 mini-DIN plug adapters, because PC/XT keyboards use different keyboard scan codes.

	Definition of IBM PC-XT
		However, due to the success of the IBM PC, what had been a generic term came to mean specifically a microcomputer compatible with IBM's specification (see IBM PC compatible).
		The original IBM PC used the 7 bit ASCII alphabet as the basis, but in addition this was extended to an 8 bit somewhat haphazardly collected set of characters unique for the IBM PC.
		In 1988 IBM introduced a drive for 2.88 megabyte "DSED" diskettes in its top-of-the-line models; it was an instant failure and is all but forgotten today (but survives as a possible "size" choice in disk-formatting utilities).

		The IBM Personal Computer ("PC") was not as powerful as many of the other personal computers it was competing against at the time of its release.
		This time IBM was determined to do it right - in order to save time and money, instead of developing their own hardware and software, they used already available off-the-shelf components.
		But there was one aspect of the PC which could not be legally copied - the BIOS, as it was copyrighted and protected by law.

		IBM VGA boards were only available for microchannel PS/2 machines, but other manufacturers quickly released 8 bit and 16 bit ISA versions for use with the older machines.
		If you are not going to be using your XT for extended periods of time, try to cover it with a sheet to prevent dust from getting inside it, and close the latch on the floppy drive(s) to ensure they remain dirt free.

	IBM PC XT 5160
		So I installed IBM DOS 5.0 and the Windows that came on some of the disks that I got with it, this turned out to be Windows 2.03.
		Quite obviously this wasn't the Windows that had previously been installed on it as there was MS Word on the hard disk and it wouldn't run with this version of Windows so I have now installed a cut down Windows 3.1 and that got it sorted.
		Although this is marked on the case as an XT I think it is an AT as it has an AMD N80L286-12/S processor I am not even sure if it is the original motherboard.

		We bought the XT in 1982 or 1983, our first PC, an upgrade from a dumb terminal that we used for word processing -- we did that by connecting to a STAR minicomputer in downtown Lansing via an $1200 1200 baud modem (which was bigger than the 20 meg hard drive on the XT).
		Along with the XT, we bought one of the worst Okidata printers and a brand new word processing program, which the salesman confidently told us was "destined to be the best" -- Wordperfect!

	83-Key PC/XT Keyboard Layout
		The very first PC keyboard was the old 83-key keyboard used by IBM for the very first IBM PCs and PC/XTs in the early 1980s.
		Of course, with the first keyboards IBM also engineered the keyboard interface, cabling and signaling standards that are mostly still in use today.
		They are almost never seen any more except on any early PCs that are still running (and they are indeed still out there...) For a while in the mid-1980s many keyboards were manufactured with a switch to enable emulation of an 83-key keyboard for the sake of older PCs.

		IBM PCs and compatible models from other vendors are the most widely used computer systems in the world.
		Note: "IBM PC" is used in this dictionary to denote IBM and compatible personal computers, and to distinguish these from other personal computers, though the phrase "PC" is often used elsewhere, by those who know no better, to mean "IBM PC or compatible".
		When a new peripheral device, such as a monitor or scanner, is added to an IBM compatible, a corresponding, new controller board must be plugged into an expansion slot (in the bus) in order to electronically control its operation.
