IBM discount

From S23Wiki

This is the JargonFile (V4.00) entry for IBM discount - Next: ICBM address, Prev: IBM
:IBM discount: /n./ A price increase. Outside IBM, this derives from the common perception that IBM products are generally overpriced (see clone); inside, it is said to spring from a belief that large numbers of IBM employees living in an area cause prices to rise.
