What two major types called IBM-style PC's does microcomputers fall into?
This is a bit of a confusing question. IBM-Compatible computers are a type of microcomputer themselves. Any x86 based processor, such as AMD, Intel, VIA, and Cyrix, are IBM-Compatible. Other systems also exist, such as older Macs which used IBM PowerPC processors and Motorola processors. There also exists Sun Systems SPARC processors, and a whole host of others. IBM-Compatibles are the current dominant consumer system.
What are the differences between apple and IBM processors?
Apple worked with IBM and Motorola to develop the Power PC processors which were a development of IBM's POWER1 processor. Apple used Power PC processors in their range of Macintosh computers between 1994 and 2006 when Apple switched to using the processors from Intel's range. IBM produces a range of processors for all types of devices including the Cell processor used in Sony's PlayStation (The X Box also uses a Power PC processor). (See links below) In 2008 Apple spent $278 million to acquire PA Semi a company which designs processors based on the Power PC model. It is not known what Apple intends to do with processors designed by the company.
What was introduced in 1986 an became the most popular os among IBM and IBM compatible computers using the Intel 8086 processors?
MS-DOS

Why is IBM pc said to not be compatible with Apple Macintosh computer?
This question does not make sense. Please revise and post again.
What is IBM processors?
IBM processors refer to a range of central processing units (CPUs) designed and manufactured by IBM for various computing applications. These processors include the Power series, used primarily in enterprise servers and high-performance computing, and the IBM z series, which powers mainframe systems. IBM's processors are known for their scalability, reliability, and advanced features, such as support for virtualization and high throughput. Additionally, IBM has been involved in developing specialized processors for artificial intelligence and quantum computing.
Which computer is compatible with Windows 98 IBM or Apple?
Neither one is a particular computer (they are manufacturers, not model names), and neither has a product lineup solely compatible or incompatible with Windows 98. IBM made several workstations with PowerPC processors that obviously cannot run Windows 98, and newer Macs have Intel processors that can run Windows 98, though the hardware is not fully compatible.
What is famous for manufacturing computer processors?
The most famous manufacturer of computer processors is IBM. The most famous manufacturer of computer processors after IBM is AMD.
What are two processors created by IBM?
Two notable processors created by IBM are the IBM PowerPC and the IBM z/Architecture. The PowerPC, developed in the early 1990s, was widely used in personal computers and embedded systems, while the z/Architecture is designed for IBM's mainframe computers, providing high performance and reliability for enterprise applications. Both processors have significantly influenced their respective markets and continue to be integral to IBM’s technology offerings.
Will word processing software that runs on an Apple Macintosh will readily run on an IBM microcomputer?
Apple Macintosh software will not readily run on an IBM computer.
How do you know if a computer is IBM compatible?
IBM compatible is a term used to describe a computer, hardware or software that is IBM/PC Compatible. This does not necessarily mean that the computer was manufactured by http://wiki.answers.com/../../comp/ibm.htm.Today, the majority of computers manufactured and used are either IBM or http://wiki.answers.com/../../comp/apple.htmhttp://wiki.answers.com/../m/macintos.htmcompatible.
Which notebook laptops are better Dell or IBM?
IBM does not make laptops. IBM makes processors that are used in computers, but not actual computers. So the answer to your question would have to be Dell.
