What is IBM COMPUTers?

A computer and computing services company named International Business Machines.

Originally founded in 1924 following the merger in 1911 of 3 companies into the holding company CTR (Computing Tabulating Recording):

  • Tabulating Machine Company, made electromechanical punchcard data processing machines and punchcards (the product IBM was most known for from 1932 until the 1970s, because of their use by Social Security for printing benefit checks)
  • International Time Recording Company (itself a merger of Bundy Manufacturing Company, Willard and Frick Manufacturing Company, Chicago Time-Register Company, Del Ray Register Company, and Syracuse Time Recorder Company), made mostly timeclocks
  • Computing Scale Company, made various items including weighing scales, automatic meat slicers, and coffee grinders
With the purchase of Electromatic Typewriters, Inc. in 1933, IBM added electric typewriters to its line of office equipment.

By the time IBM made their first electronic digital computers in the early 1950s (NORC and the IBM 701 Defense Calculator) they had an extremely diversified and correspondingly difficult to manage product line. It was not until the late 1960s that they began to fully commit to the computer business and selloff unrelated product lines, a process that continues to the present day (e.g. the selloff of their PC line to Lenova in China as IBM itself concentrates more on services than actual hardware).

What was the name of the first operating system on IBM PC?

DOS: Disk Operating System

TOS: Tape Operating System, most likely came first.

It used 1/2 inch 7 channel tapes on computers without harddisks.

Before that IBM had a system called IBSYS on their 7090 & 7094 computers, but it was more of a Batch Monitor than a real Operating System (it only automatically ran jobs one after another in batches).

What circumstances made the IBM PC so successful?

This may not be a complete answer to what you are looking for, but if I were to guess I would have to say that IBM's became so popular because of the fact that they are one of the most sturdiest computers ever made. IBM iswidely known for their standards in durability Even though the IBM PC's don't have all of the cosmetic wows of say an Apple they are usually more durable and therefor last longer.

IBM became commercially popular because it's corporate strategy was to ensure the customer received support and solutions for all their business problems. Typically the larger the "user", the faster the solution. IBM's massive organization, as compared to all it's competitors, was capable of solving any problem at any cost if it's management felt it to be necessary to maintain good customer relations. IBM's PC computers were not leading edge by any standards, however, they did establish the standards for compatibility of software and internal architecture. The PC actually created a dilemma for IBM since it had capability to run and off load applications from their "bread and butter" computers, the mainframes. This was diametrically apposed to their corporate marketing/selling strategy for years.
