Released in 1975, the IBM 5100 was the pinnacle of 70s computing. This behemoth of a machine had a 1.5 MHz 8-bit processor, 16 KB of RAM, and a whopping 4.2 MB hard drive. That's right, folks, 4.2 MB! You could fit an entire episode of 'The Brady Bunch' on that.
But wait, there's more! The 5100 also had a 12-inch CRT display with a whopping 24-line screen resolution. You could watch your favorite TV shows in high definition... of sorts.
