ABOUT THIS GUIDE
Since the introduction of the Personal System/2 family on April 2,
1987, a wide variety of system models, memory modules, memory
expansion adapters, and fixed disks have been introduced. While this
broad product line offers IBM customers unparalleled flexibility, it
can also make the tasks of selecting, configuring, or expanding
systems seem complex and sometimes daunting. The following tables
simplify the tasks of selecting, configuring, and expanding the
various members of the Personal System/2 family. The information
contained herein applies to all systems, displays, memory, and disk
features introduced in the United States between April 1, 1987 and May
10, 1989.
To assist in the system selection process, information is provided on
the base system features, expandability, and usability. Much of what
distinquishes an IBM system from competition is a careful attention to
the details of human factors design that cannot be measured with
simple numbers; nonetheless, even comparisons of those traits that can
be measured reveal the benefits of IBM concern for every aspect of
system design. Reliability, expandability, size, weight, noise
output, power use, and electromagnetic radiation levels can and should
be compared during the system selection process. In making the system
selection decision, it is also important to consider performance.
Therefore, it is important to understand why benchmarks and
performance comparisons are not included in this guide and to place in
context many of the performance indicators that are provided.
It has been said that "benchmarks never lie but liars often
benchmark." Benchmarks are useful only to the extent that they are
clearly recognized to be a limited measure of a specific component of
a complex system. Rarely can any one benchmark, data point, or set of
benchmarks crystallize the essence of system performance into a single
comparative number. More often, they lead to misguided decisions
based upon improper interpretations of system performance
characteristics. Even worse, benchmarks are often used to justify
inappropriate system selection criteria and weightings far removed
from the realities of daily use. Total system throughput and
application performance are comprised of many interrelated factors; a
bottleneck in one system subcomponent can easily negate supposed
performance benefits from another ultra-fast system subcomponent.
Without a complete understanding of the interrelationships of every
subcomponent of the systems, decision makers might be swayed by
marketing pitches that emphasize the specifications of certain
sub-optimized components or carefully selected benchmarks that often
demonstrate performance characteristics unrelated to actual system
throughput in daily use. No benchmark or single measurement should
ever replace actual use or trial as the primary microcomputer system
selection criterion.
Another critical consideration is that benchmarks almost always
single-mindedly exclude reliability comparisons from performance
considerations. This rewards companies that design for performance
over reliability. In general, during system design, performance can
be bought at the expense of reliability. IBM designs to optimize
system reliability and provide overall system throughput through
balanced system design rather than to maximize individual component
specifications. Thus, IBM systems will perform very well when
measured by throughput or user perception of performance and extremely
well when measured to include system integrity lapses as significant
negative performance indicators. See the section below on the Micro
Channel and reliability.
Finally, most benchmarks that have been published to date measure PS/2
performance under single-thread benchmarks that miss the entire design
point of the multi-tasking, Micro Channel-based Personal System/2. It
is somewhat analoguous to comparing a rocket to a jet plane using
maximum attainable speed as the benchmark criterion. The jet may not
perform like a rocket if orbiting the earth is the objective, but it
will more likely meet the needs of those who are interested in
destination flexibility and smooth take-offs and landings.
Much has been said and written about the Micro Channel Architecture as
compared to the IBM AT bus architecture (ISA) and the Extended
Industry Standard Architecture. IBM's perspective is rarely presented
accurately, partly because the issues are largely technical and
sometimes esoteric. Still, a few observations are in order. First,
IBM developed the AT bus architecture and has not abandoned it. Note
in Table 1 that many of our low-end systems are based upon the XT or
AT bus. The reason is that machines designed for single task
operation are well served by the technology of the PC/AT bus.
However, IBM recognized the need for greatly increased reliability in
a multi-tasking, communications-intensive environment and developed
the Micro Channel Architecture to meet the needs of the next
generation while maintaining compatibility with today's software base.
Although performance improvements derived from bus-mastering will
prove to be a significant benefit of the Micro Channel, its most
important contribution to the state of the art is a quantum leap in
reliability. Much reduced electromagnetic radiation coupled with
level-sensitive interrupts eliminate system hangs due to lost or
spurious interrupts. Automatic configuration eliminates lost time
spent researching switch settings and searching for switch (interrupt)
conflicts whenever a new adapter is installed.
A comparison of extended warranty or maintenance costs reveals some
interesting reliability comparisons. For example, it is not generally
known that for $25, the purchaser of a PS/2 can upgrade the standard
1-year carry-in warranty to an on-site warranty. In other words,
during the first year (when the potential for trouble is highest), you
can have IBM service come to your home within 4-6 hours to repair your
system for only $25 total cost for the entire year. Ask your dealer
for a price on comparable service for any other system. Even after
the first year, on-site maintenance prices are generally 30-50% less
than competition's prices. Reliability is often a hidden variable and
difficult to measure; however, when the assurance of minimal down-
time can be purchased for only a marginal cost, it's worth it.
Call IBM Direct at 1-800-426-3675 or contact an IBM Marketing
Representative if you'd like additional details.
In conclusion, we invite you to experience Personal System/2
reliability, ergonomics and performance first-hand before making
system selection decisions and hope that this guide makes a valuable
contribution towards helping you find the system and configuration
that meets your needs.

NOTES:
* All systems are classified by the FCC as Class B, suitable for home use.
FCC Class B is a more stringent classification than FCC Class A.
Thus, the addition of a Class A adapter such as the Token Ring Adapter,
could make the systems unsuitable for home use.
* All systems are UL 478 approved.
* All systems except the Model P70 386 (see next note) have been tested to
operate properly when the air temperature is at least 60° F (15.6° C) and
not more than 90° F (32.2° C) with relative humidity between 8% and 80%.
* The Model P70 386 has been tested to
operate properly when the air temperature is at least 50° F (10° C) and
not more than 95° F (35° C) with relative humidity between 8% and 80%.

NOTES:
(1) If you do not wish to concurrently execute all installed functions and
applications, then the memory required will be less. In this case, the memory
required would be the sum of the Operating System Base and the particular
functions and applications the user wishes to execute concurrently as well as
an allowance for user data.
(2) These numbers reflect the working set of the OS/2 functions listed and not
the total size of all of the code and data areas that comprise the functions.
The quantities shown assume that an acceptable degree of sequment swapping is
occuring in the operational environment. To estimate memory requirements, add
together the recommended memory size for the opreating system base and each
installed function and application together with an allowance for user data
buffer requirements. Using less than the recommended memory size will increase
the time to switch from one function to another, reduce throughput, and
increase the size of the swap file.
(3) Automatically installed; but may be removed by designating PROTECTONLY=YES
in the CONFIG.SYS file. The DOS compatibility session itself uses no
additional disk space; however, requirements for DOS compatiblity session
applications should be obtained from the applications' supplier(s).
(4) Testing indicates a 2.5MB swap file is typical; however more or less file
space may be necessary. To improve disk performance and to reduce file cluster
fragmentation, many users dedicate a 2-5MB fixed disk partition separate from
data or program storage as the swap drive with SWAPPATH=d: in the CONFIG.SYS
file.
(5) Required per session for concurrent file transfer.
(6) Memory size requirement is for a single database application. Subsequent
applications require additional memory, but less than the first.
(7) The Communications Manager must be installed for the LAN Requester or OS/2
LAN Server functions.
(8) Includes the Communications Manager LAN Requester files which must be
installed before the IBM OS/2 LAN Server.
(9) All sizes are estimated and are application/user dependent.
