On the occasion of ThinkPad's 25th birthday, we recall some of IBM's best known creations: from the Selectric typewriter to the IBM PC to the iconic laptop brand acquired by Lenovo in 2005.
The System/23 Datamaster was announced by IBM's General Systems Division in July 1981, only one month before the IBM PC.
The Datamaster is an all-in-one computer with a built-in text mode CRT display, keyboard and two 8-inch floppy disk drives.
The machine was powered by an 8-bit 8085 and had 256KB of memory. A BASIC interpreter was also built into the computer.
The intention of Datamaster was to provide a computer that could be operated without specialists and the machine was designed to be operated by novice users.
The machine came with a choice of two printers and accounting and word processing software. A full function data processing installation, with a single computer and an 80 character-per-second printer cost $9,830, which according to IBM was its "cheapest solution at that time".
