Abstract
Advances in personal computer technology during 1988 are highlighted. Among the developments discussed are: the IBM PS/2 Model 30 286, a successor to the PC/AT; the adoption of a bus standard by nine PC makers, an extension to IBM´s old PC/AT bus, to be called the Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA): better screens and more storage for laptops; and the arrival of a graphic user interface for OS/2.<>
