IBM System Type Master List

IBM IntelliStation


IBM PowerPC Series


IBM Operating Systems


IBM Personal System/2


IBM PC (PC 300, Aptiva, Netvista, ThinkCentre etc.)


IBM ThinkPad


IBM RS/6000

Note: some RS/6000s use the same motherboard/firmware and system type, whereas others do not (7043), some are re-branded under Power Series, and finally some have different model numbers (132/100) when they're identical. To make it less confusing I deliberately grouped redundant system names to go to the (same) corresponding URLs.
