* Identifies the 16-•bit internal bus and 8–bit data bus of the 8088 microprocessor used in the Personal Computer. See chapter 2 for more detail on this subject.
** Expansion to this capacity will not allow the use of peripherals other than printer display and disk drives. All expansion slots will be filled with memory expansion cards and a display printer adapter card. If a color display is used, a printer cannot be used unless an expansion chassis (non-IBM) is utilized.
