First IBM computer to use the 3.5" floppy disk?

If the PC Convertible was released in 1986, it's not the first IBM computer to use the 3.5" floppy disk. The IBM JX, while not seeing a world-wide release, even had dual 3.5" floppy drives already in 1984. 80.187.100.92 (talk) 11:57, 2 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Wrong history

2nd paragraph: It was the follow-up to the IBM Portable and was model number 5140. It was replaced in 1991 by the IBM PS/2 L40 SX,


That is not right. In May 1989 IBM announced the IBM Model P70 (named "Personal System/55 Model 5545T" in Japan), followed by IBM Model P75 in Novenber 1990 and L40SX in 1991. - So written in the book "ThinkPad A Different Shade of Blue". --91.12.107.160 (talk) 22:03, 21 March 2015 (UTC) (Mornsgrans)Reply
