Ten Re:"And when was the 386 introduced? 1988?" The 386 was introduced in 1885 and the first 386 system was introduced by Compaq. The introduction by Conpaq was a big deal because in the past, IBM claimed the "firsts". Intel did not do chipsets in those days so it took much longer to ramp a new generation processor. Compaq was totally pissed when the Pentium generation processor was introduced by Intel along with a chipset and even a motherboard. Even a 2d tier player like Packard Bell or a screwdriver shop could market a system quickly. This eliminated the need for a serious technology resource that Compaq had used in the past to get a 1 year lead in the market and obtain premium prices.
