I’ll bet you five bucks that IBM had no idea what they would kick off August 12, 1981 — 25 years ago today — when the first PC was released. It wasn’t new or innovative, but it marked the entrance of the 800-pound mainframe gorilla into a world of small computers, fit for individuals instead of businesses. Oh, and high-resolution, graphically dazzling, immersive and challenging gameplay.
Congratulations, IBM. Seriously.
