The single most canonical test for IBM PC compatibility was Microsoft's
Flight Simulator, taking off from the now demolished Meighs Field in
Chicago.
 
That game used the OS and BIOS for the loading of the game, and then
went on to direct hardware access for pretty much the rest of the
playing time.

I can remember Flight Simulator being used as the benchmark for
compatibility as far back as 1985. A report on a computer show mentioned
that clone makers were demoing it running on their products.

This is why I feel the term “IBM compatible” was misleading, it should
have been “Microsoft compatible” from at least that point on.
