Dearborn, MI, United States
In the mid-1980s, the IBM PC dominated the personal computer market. A variety of "clones" like the PC-4 competed with IBM products, offering highly compatible software and peripheral hardware at a lower cost to the consumer. NCR's legacy is not in its cost, however, but in its interest to create an aesthetically and ergonomically distinguished clone system.
