I just opened up a copy of Datamation and saw an advertisement
from IBM for a "System/36PC".  What is this????
There is a picture of an IBM PC with two floppy drives, monochrome
monitor, and keyboard.  Next to the PC is a vertical mount chassis
system which has a single half-height drive and looks like a PC/AT.
The price? -- $5995! This includes "a 256K, 40MB System/36 Processor".
The ad says that it is available from participating Authorized IBM PC
dealers, Value Added Dealers, and IBM Product Centers.

When was this announced?  Did it just get lost in the RT/PC announcement?
