from The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (8 July 2008)

IBM compatible

   <computer> A computer which can use hardware and software
   designed for the {IBM PC} (or, less often, IBM {mainframes}).

   This was once a key phrase in marketing a new PC {clone} but
   now in 1998 is rarely used, the non-IBM {wintel} {personal
   computer} manufacturers such as {Compaq}, {Dell} and {Gateway
   2000} and OS vendor {Microsoft} having taken control of the
   market, marginalising IBM.
