      And for those who do not trust Wikipedia, http://www-03.ibm.com/ibm/history/ibm100/us/en/icons/personalcomputer/ http://www-03.ibm.com/ibm/history/ibm100/us/en/icons/persona... states: "They went to Microsoft for the operating system (QDOS, renamed PC-DOS and later sold by Microsoft as MS-DOS) and to Intel ® for its 8088 processor."
