The first computer with a screen is generally considered to be the IBM 701, introduced in 1952, which utilized a cathode ray tube (CRT) for display. However, the first commercially successful computer with a built-in screen was the IBM 5100, released in 1975, featuring a small CRT monitor. Earlier systems like the DEC PDP-1, also released in 1960, had screens but were primarily used for research and did not achieve widespread commercial use.

The IBM PC model 5150 was released on August 12th, 1981. The 5100 had been released in 1975 as IBM's first desktop computer, but was aimed at scientific applications and was prohibitively expensive (around $20,000 USD). The 5150 was developed rapidly using off-the-shelf parts and eventually went to sale at a more reasonable price of around $1,500USD. It was designed around an open standard, and even included circuit schematics and the BIOS source code.
