The Olivetti M24 is a computer that was sold by Olivetti in 1983 using the Intel 8086 CPU.[1]

The system was sold in the United States under its original name by Docutel/Olivetti of Dallas.[2] AT&T and Xerox bought rights to rebadge the system as the AT&T PC 6300[2][3][4] and the Xerox 6060 series, respectively.[5][6] (AT&T owned 25% of Olivetti around this time.[2]) The AT&T 6300, launched in June 1984, was AT&T's first attempt to compete in the PC compatible market.[3]

It was also available in France as the PERSONA 1600,[7] built by LogAbax.[8]
