The IBM RT PC ( RISC Technology Personal Computer) is a family of workstation computers from IBM introduced in 1986. These were the first commercial computers from IBM that were based on a reduced instruction set computer (RISC) architecture.

The IBM RT Personal Computer is a microprocessor-based workstation system for the technical professional. The RT PC offers a multi-user, multitasking operating system with an ease-of-use interface to system services. Programming languages for engineering and scientific application development are supported.

IBMIBM® Rational Test RealTime is a complete test and runtime analysis tool set for systems development created in any cross-development environment. Rational Test RealTime provides tools for automated component testing, code coverage, memory leak detection, performance profiling, and UML sequence diagram tracing.

IBM announced “upgrades and improvements” to the RT PC. The new RT Model 15 would feature improved networking capability, memory, and storage. Cheifet added that IBM was also cutting the price of the RT. IBM transferred 2,000 employees into sales as part of a planned increase of its sales force by 5,000 people.

The RT/PC (short for RISC Technology Personal Computer), codenamed 032 during its development, was a family of workstation computers first released by IBM in January 1986. It was IBM's first commercialized computer product to be based on a RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) architecture.

Il IBM RT è stato un computer prodotto da IBM e basato sul bus PC-AT e il processore ROMP, un derivato dell'IBM 801. Il sistema venne presentato nel 1986 come RT PC (RISC Technology Personal Computer) e utilizzava come sistema operativo AIX 1.x, 2.x, l'Academic Operation System (AOS) o il Pick operating system.

2022年11月14日 · The IBM RT PC line were used within the National Science Foundation Network (NSFNET) as packet switching hubs for the network. Like so many artifacts of technology history, the RT fascinates with what might have been.

AIX (Advanced Interactive eXecutive) is a Unix port originally developed by IBM and released in 1986 for the IBM RT 6150, a RISC based desktop workstation. It was later ported to the RS/6000, POWER, and PowerPC platforms as well as IBM System i, System/370 mainframes, and the PS/2 personal computers, and the Apple Network Server.

This is the IBM RT PC workstation keyboard. We had a few at the uni, 26 inch monitors in the 1990s, pretty cool stuff. I still have one of the keyboards, which I picked up when they were throwing it all away. The keys feel GREAT for rubber dome, too bad it isn't compatible with modern computers.

The IBM RT (for RISC Technology) was IBM's high performance engineering workstation. It featured high-resolution graphics and typically ran AIX (IBM's version of UNIX). It sold for $10,000 when first announced in January, 1986.
