The IBM 5120 Computing System (sometimes referred to as the IBM 5110 Model 3) was the desktop version of the IBM 5110 Portable Computer which featured two built-in 8 inch 1.2 MB floppy disk drives, announced in February 1980. It came with the BASIC Programming Language. [1]Apart from the housing and the disk drives the 5120 was technically equivalent to the IBM 5110.
The IBM 5120 was launched as the lowest-priced IBM computer to date. Depending on the options the overall system prices ranged from $9,340 to $23,990.
To emphasize its office image IBM released in that same year 6 new programs: task inventory, billing, payroll, accounts payable, accounts receivable and general ledger accounting.
