It was hard for me to make a connection between the seized computers and the release of an IBM compatible but I did. The article is new enough and long enough; it is also neutral. The QPQ is done and the article is free of copyright violations. The article has the correct inline citations and the hook is interesting. Bruxton (talk) 04:47, 21 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
