I'm not sure the new title is correct! IBM PC RT was released in 1986 vs 1987 for the Archimedes.

  I knew it! Ok, I've melted the title down further.

    That's a 'personal computer' only in the sense that IBM put 'PC' in the name - it's a $20k workstation. (Not suggesting that three's any point editing the title further)

      That's a fair challenge. I'm not sure it had workstation performance though! It was the first desktop RISC machine though I think?

        I know a lot less about these (the name and the fact they existed covers most of it) than the wikipedia page, but it's such an early commercial RISC microprocessor, first desktop seems like a plausible title. This made me wonder whether ROMP isn't a sort of 'lost' architecture. There are probably a lot more of other failed RISC designs still kicking around the world (the 88k, i960, etc)
