the generic term "personal computer" ("pc") was in use years before 1981, applied as early as 1972 to the xerox parc's alto, but because of the success of the ibm personal computer, the term "pc" came to also mean more specifically a desktop microcomputer compatible with ibm's "personal computer" branded products. since the machine was based on open architecture, within a short time of its introduction, third-party suppliers of peripheral devices, expansion cards, and software proliferated; the influence of the ibm pc on the personal computer market was substantial in standardizing a platform for personal computers. "ibm compatible" became an important criterion for sales growth; after the 1980s, only the apple macintosh family kept a significant share of the microcomputer market without compatibility with the ibm personal computer.
