  • IBM was never engaged in the home like Google. They had a few productivity apps you might have used, and you might have bought early IBM branded hardware, but by the 00s the IBM compatible marketing was unnecessary and they largely and quickly died off in the personal space without making much actual impact or penetration. Nobody ever choose IBM. It was compatible and probably came with your PC.
