clone  [klon] noun

 

a.k.a. Frankenstein

 

(1)
This term generally refers to a generic, PC-compatible computer that runs all (or almost all) of the software intended for a brand name system, and can use all of the same peripheral devices. Most likely, it is built with many different hardware components, from many different manufacturers (thus the name "Frankenstein"). The term can also refer to software (see: Gnutella and Linux).

 

(2)

also blatant rip-off, aka: wrecking yard computer, an assembly of various components neatly bundled into a tidy case and marketed as a high end computing system. Poorly designed computer systems usually lacking quality control or quality assurance testing. Due to the inherent nature of so-called compatible hardware these systems are generally fraught with anomalous problems that worsen with the passing of time.

 

(3)

Computer systems sold by most no-name computer stores. Many larger electronics dealers also market some form of clone. While these computers are marketed with warranties, they are rarely honored with the vendors deferring blame to the user.
