AI explanation

Dell Inc. was founded by Michael Dell in 1984 under the name 'PC's Limited,' operating out of his University of Texas dorm room, selling IBM PC-compatible computers built from stock components. The company was renamed Dell Computer Corporation in 1988 to align with its founder's name as it grew. 'Dell Systems,' 'Michael Dell Computers,' and 'Orange' are not the historical original name, making 'PC's Limited' the factually correct answer.
