Technically, the only computers that can be called "IBM Computers" are the ones that have been manufactured and/or sold by IBM. However, the "IBM Compatible Computers" are those that have been built in accordance with the IBM Standard. IBM created the original PC then turned it over to the "open architecture" community to be built by anyone who wants to follow those standards. IBM Compatible computers are the "PC" including the Laptop PC. Pretty much just about anything that's not "Apple".
no
Depends on how you want them to be compatible.
IBM thinkpad, definitely.
IBM compatible was a term used in the eighties to describe personal computers that could run PC-DOS the IBM operating software. These days the term is redundant.
No. IBM did design and sell the original ThinkPad laptop. However, a company named Lenovo has been manufacturing and marketing the ThinkPad laptop since 2005.
The IBM Thinkpad R40e has a Mini PCI slot. However, the BIOS on IBM / Lenovo laptops is locked so that it will not boot with a card that was not purchased from IBM. It is possible to modify the BIOS to allow any card to be installed, but this does imply some risk. If you don't want to risk bricking your laptop, the R40e has a CardBus slot that any wireless card can be easily added to.
Windows works with IBM machines, though Windows '98 is incredibly obsolete at this time.
It is not possible to install AIX on a laptop in any way.
