By contrast with the 4-cabinet PDP-1, [10] the minimum configuration of the PDP-5 was a single 19-inch cabinet with "150 printed circuit board modules holding over 900 transistors." [11] Additional cabinets were required to house many peripheral devices. The minimum configuration weighed about 540 pounds (240 kg). [12]
A 1974 advertisement for the Wang 2200 Computer. The Wang 2200 was an all-in-one minicomputer released by Wang Laboratories in May 1973. [10] Unlike some other desktop computers, such as the HP 9830, it had a cathode-ray tube (CRT) in a cabinet that also included an integrated computer-controlled cassette tape storage unit and keyboard.

This list of computer size categories attempts to list commonly used categories of computer by the physical size of the device and its chassis or case, in descending order of size. One generation's "supercomputer" is the next generation's "mainframe", and a "PDA" does not have the same set of functions as a "laptop", but the list still has ...
As the prices of flat-screen liquid crystal displays (LCDs) began to fall, Apple conceived of an update to the iMac. Inspired by a sunflower, the iMac G4 put the computer in a semi-hemispherical base, with the display sitting above it on a stainless steel arm. The arm allowed the display to be easily tilted, rotated, and raised and lowered by a ...
Mid-range models capable of 3D graphics cost from $35,000 (equivalent to $86,000 in 2023) to $60,000 (equivalent to $147,000 in 2023), while high-end models overlapping with minicomputers cost from $80,000 (equivalent to $197,000 in 2023) to $100,000 (equivalent to $246,000 in 2023) or more. [22]
According to the product description of January 1978, many different models were released, with 32K or 64K memory and a 9" (VDP4x-range) or 12" (VDP8x-range) video display. For example, the VDP-40 had two 5-1/4" disk drives, a 9" 40-character-wide display and a 2K ROM monitor all in one cabinet.
In 1984, the first model released, the PC-10, sold for $559 without monitor ($1499 in 2023). [4] They were sold alongside Commodore's Amiga and Commodore 64c/128 lines of home and graphics computers. The PC10 was comparable in the market to the Blue Chip PC, Leading Edge Model D and Tandy 1000 line of PC compatibles. [5] [6]
The larger models 20 and 40 had floppy disk drives. The floor-standing models 50, 150, and 250 had hard disks, from which diskless models booted. In early models, these were 8" floppy disks, and later 5¼" disks. The diskless model, that partnered the DRS 20, was the DRS 10. It had 10 KB available for applications programs developed in CIS COBOL.
