"THE" IBM PC. This machine marked the beginning of the era of the PC.

 

PC's became modular and the parts and software became standardized and interchangeable, and therefore inexpensive for both business and personal use. This one machine is where the entire modern age of computers really began.

 

It also spawned an epic war between IBM's PC and Apple Computer's MAC, that still rages some 30 odd years later.
