Information about List Of Ibm Products

The following is a list of products from the International Business Machines (IBM) Corporation and its predecessor corporations, beginning in the 1890s, and spanning punched card machinery, time clocks, and typewriters, via mainframe computers and minicomputers, to microprocessors, PCs, laptop PCs, and more.

This list is eclectic; it includes, for example, the AN/FSQ-7, which was not a product in the sense of offered for sale, but was a product in the sense of manufactured - produced by the labor of IBM. The software listings are generally software families, not products (Fortran was not a product; Fortran H was a product). Indeed, the software listings at this time are few, compared to what IBM produced. Also missing are OEM products (semiconductors, for example), supplies (punched cards, for example).
