The Intel 8088 microprocessor was introduced in 1979 and was used by the original IBM PC when it was
released in 1981. The IBM PC and many compatible systems used a clock frequency of 4.77 MHz. The 8088 is a
modified version of the Intel 8086 which had been released in 1978 (the 8086 would later also be used
in IBM and compatible computers including the IBM PS/2 model 25 and 30). The instruction set of the two processors
was identical, the most notable difference was the use of an 8-bit data bus in the 8088 versus the 16-bit data
bus in the 8086.
