However, IBM already had a history of using Intel chips in its products and had also acquired the rights to manufacture the 8086 family.

However, IBM requested that this API be significantly changed for OS / 2.

However, C language programming is much easier to obtain skilled people in, so most if not all new development is done in C. Since z / TPF allows assembler programs to be repackaged into 1 logical file, critical legacy applications can be maintained and actually improve efficiency-the cost of entering one of these programs will now come at the initial enter when the entire program is fetched into core and logical flow through the program is accomplished via simple branch instructions, instead of a dozen or so IBM instructions previously needed to perform what is known as ' core resident enter / back '.

However, some older operating systems ( such as OS / VS1 and OS / VS2 SVS ) and even modern ones ( such as IBM i ) are single address space operating systems that run all processes in a single address space composed of virtualized memory.

However, modern IBM mainframes also offer two additional levels of virtualization: LPARs and ( optionally ) z / VM.

However, in the first part of the 21st century many of these same legacy system vendors, particularly IBM and Hewlett-Packard, began to adopt Linux as part of their overall sales strategy, with " open source " marketed as trumping " open system ".

However, following its release, the IBM PC itself was widely imitated, as well as the term.

However, IBM itself lost the main role in the market for IBM PC compatibles by 1990.

However, recognising the benefits of vector processing IBM developed Virtual Vector Architecture for use in supercomputers coupling several scalar processors to act as a vector processor.

However, even now there are interoperability problems between the TrouSerS trusted software stack ( released as open source software by IBM ) and Hewlett-Packard's stack.

However by the early 1960s GE was the largest user of IBM mainframes, and producing their own machines seemed like an excellent way to lower the costs of their computing department.
