Where can I obtain 8086 based industrial PC. and would its BIOS compatible with the one produced by IBM. i.e can I run IBM software without modification.

thanks
 

Strictly spoken, there has been no 8086 based IBM PC. The first model IBM XT is based on 8088, and the successor IBM AT on a 80286. So the question arises, which kind of compatibility you have exactly in mind. BIOS compatibility can be most likely achieved with a recent Pentium PC, running MSDOS.
